For any country’s retail finance situation to prosper, its credit unions must be completely healthy financial units. Basically, a credit union is a non-profit financial institution that is owned and operated entirely by its members. Credit unions provide financial services for their members, including savings and lending. Large organizations and companies may organize credit unions for their members and employees, respectively. To join a credit union, a person must ordinarily belong to a participating organization, such as a college alumni association or labor union. When a person deposits money in a credit union, he/she becomes a member of the union because the deposit is considered partial ownership in the credit union. The sole purpose of the creation of many credit unions is to take up the cause of community development or sustainable international development at smaller scale. There are some huge credit unions which have more than a million members and their coffers have several billion dollars of money.
