How Lokyata Helps Improve Members’ Financial Wellbeing
While building member trust in your credit union at the same time.
Financial wellbeing has been a primary focus of the credit union movement since its inception more than a hundred years ago. It’s a core element of the overall member service program at almost every credit union.
“Financial wellbeing” is generally described as the condition of a person or household who:
- Can meet current cash flow needs. This includes debt payments, recurring expenses like rent, utility bills, or cell phone bills, and normal living expenses.
- Feels secure about their financial future.
- Is able to enjoy day-to-day life.
In principle, everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive financially.
However, the evidence suggests it’s an unrealistic hope for many people. They lack the wherewithal to weather unexpected financial shocks. They have little or no savings cushion. They have poor credit options. And their short-term financial needs make it difficult or impossible to pursue long-term financial goals.
According to recent information, more than three-quarters of American adults are anxious about their financial situation. The sources of their money anxiety stem from a wide range of situations. This represents an excellent opportunity to help people learn how to enjoy better financial security.
Credit unions are known as the place to go for better financial health.
In addition to the financial counseling and advice credit unions provide, they back it up with affordable loans, better deposit interest rates, and a host of other freely available member services. In turn, members see their credit union as a partner with their best interests at heart.
