Credit Union teams up with YouOwn
BayTrust announced an investment of $2 million to support YouOwn s co-ownership programme in the Bay of Plenty earlier this year. Now, YouOwn is announcing Credit Union Baywide as the home lender for the co-ownership programme.
Credit Union Baywide is a 100 per cent New Zealand-owned financial co-operative,
and like BayTrust, a not-for-profit.
Originally established in 1971 as Whakatu Freezing Works Employee s Credit Union, and following a merger with NZCU South, NZCUCentral and ACU in 2019, Credit Union Baywide has grown to 21 branches and a strong online presence supporting Kiwis across New Zealand.
