The Credit Union Difference
As a credit union, we are a not-for-profit financial cooperative, which means we operate to serve our member-owners. This makes us quite different from other financial institutions. Our non-profit status means that we return net earnings to our members in the form of lower interest rates on loans, higher dividends on savings, and lower fees.
Our goal is to build lifetime relationships by continually expanding products and services while emphasizing financial security, quality, and convenience in an environment that values and respects members, employees, and business partners.
Why Copper State Credit Union?
In April 2019, Canyon State Credit Union and Deer Valley Credit Union announced a collaborative partnership with the intent to merge in the Fall of 2019. The Board of Directors and executive teams of both Deer Valley Credit Union and Canyon State Credit Union recognize this merger will create a more competitive organization and allow us to offer more products, services, and convenient branch locations than ever before, which in turn, will benefit both our members and employees.
This partnership reflects the efforts of two financially strong credit unions to merge their values, philosophies, and commitments to the members they serve. It is not a buy out or acquisition of one credit union over another, but truly a collaborative commitment to the future of our members and employees.
