Palisades Federal Credit Union

Palisades Federal Credit Union

Member-owned nonprofit financial institution

Overview

Palisades Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative serving residents and workers in Rockland County, NY, and Bergen County, NJ, with a wide range of banking services. Members own the credit union and use it to save, borrow, and manage money; profits are used to benefit members through better rates and lower fees rather than distributing to external shareholders. The credit union operates through branches, online and mobile banking, loans, mortgages, and everyday financial products, open to anyone who lives, works, studies, volunteers, or worships in its eligible areas and to NY state employees in NYC boroughs. It differentiates itself by being the largest Rockland County-based credit union and emphasizing community service and personalized member relationships rather than for-profit growth. Its goal is to improve the financial well-being of its members by offering accessible, affordable financial solutions and building valued relationships over a lifetime.
