  • Alabama Credit Unions & Banker Myths
    Alabama Credit Unions & Banker Myths Bumper profits and a massive concentration of market share aren’t enough for Alabama’s bankers. They want more. And they seem willing to do anything to get it. Indeed, banking industry publications recently distributed to state policy-makers use anecdotes, half-truths, and innuendo in an all-out assault the state’s credit unions. While its true that Alabama credit unions are growing, they aren’t, as bankers suggest, taking over the world. They remain true to their original purpose. And they certainly aren’t harming the state’s banks. Growth: Banking institution deposits in Alabama grew by $10.2 billion in the 88% ISN'T ENOUGH? five years ending June 2003.
