PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
GULF STATES REMAINS STRONG IN DIFFICULT TIMES
First and foremost, I want to thank you for your trust and confidence in us with the important responsibility of protecting your money. It seems every week we hear about another major crisis in the financial industry from the failure of the mortgage company Countrywide to the government bailout of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to the recent failure of Indymac Bank and finally the massive reported losses of some of the most respected banks in the country. I want to assure you that we continue to be financially strong by consistently maintaining responsible lending policies, conservative investment practices, a keen eye on expenses and a strong capital base.
In addition to this, your deposits are fully insured by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government through our regulator the National Credit Union Association (NCUA). Your funds are insured up to $100,000 for regular accounts and up to an additional $250,000 for individual retirement accounts (IRA’s). In fact, depending on the structuring of your accounts, you may be insured for even greater sums of money. Visit the NCUSIF (Share Insurance) page to fully understand how you can accomplish this. This is information that is distributed through NCUA so you can be assured of its authenticity.
You can have peace of mind knowing that:
-
Gulf States Credit Union’s capital ratio is over 16%. A credit union is considered adequately capitalized if their ratio is 7%.
-
Gulf States’ most recent regulator examination and CPA audit was highly rated for safety and soundness. State examinations are very strictly enforced.
-
Gulf States has never been involved in sub-prime mortgage lending practices.
-
Gulf States is highly rated by some of the most respected financial rating companies in the country. Bauer Financial has rated us a 5 star institution, the highest rating you can earn.
We encourage you to call us and ask questions because we want to make sure that you are comfortable with where you do your banking.
Sincerely,
Gary E. Teramae
President / CEO
