Lafayette Federal
Purpose
Most people don’t understand the difference between a bank and a credit union, but it’s pretty straightforward: a bank is in the money business, to make money for its owners or shareholders; a credit union is a not-for-profit cooperative that is owned by its members, offering lower fees and better rates than for-profit and shareholder-owned banks. This makes credit unions more focused on member benefits and community well-being, rather than profit maximization.
At Lafayette Federal, we have one purpose: to serve the financial interests and needs of our members.
