Connect Financial

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Connect Financial is a Credit Union in Tasmania, Australia. It was formerly Connect Credit Union which resulted from the merging of two credit unions, the Teachers, Police and Nurses Credit Union and Savings and Loans. Because of its history many of the account holders are Tasmanian public servants. In recent years the corporation has expanded and taken on a new name in an attempt to acquire more customers particularly those outside its traditional base of public sector employees. The credit union holds elections amongst its account holders; of which 26% of members usually participate. Recently, members agreed to a merger of Connect Financial with Island State Credit Union.
