Who we are
Rockford Municipal Employees Credit Union has been serving our members
since 1942 offering a variety of quality financial services. Charted on
July 14, 1942, the original office was located at the Water Department
with Wesley Johnson at the helm for many years. In August 1992,
Rock-Winn Credit Union who served Winnebago county employees merged
with Rockford Municipal Employees Credit Union. RMECU provides a
complete line of services for all your financial needs and takes pride
in a tradition of excellent service.
Once you become a RMECU member, you also become an owner. That’s the
Credit Union difference. As a member-owner, you also help guide the
Credit Union’s future by voting for our Board of Directors. So, your
membership really does make a difference! And as a non-profit financial
cooperative, RMECU offers you better rates, lower fees and easy access
to a variety of financial products and services.
Thanks to the support of our membership, the Credit Union has over 2800
members and continues to grow and offer more services to meet your
needs. Whether you are looking for higher yields on savings and
investment, lower rates on a variety of loans (including vehicle,
personal and home equity) or convenient services such as checking, low
rate VISA® and ATM access to your account, RMECU offers all this and
more.
RMECU is a state-chartered credit union, organized under strict
regulatory laws that are monitored and enforce by the National Credit
Union Administration (NCUA) an agency of the U.S. Government and the
Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) an agency of the state of
Illinois. The NCUA insures each member account for $250,000.00.
