Abstract

Credit unions are financial co‐operatives. They provide personal financial services to their members. In Australia they are very small institutions compared to the national banking and financing companies. Credit unions have formed state organisations to pursue common aims. The national peak body is the Australian Federation of Credit Unions Ltd (AFCUL). The structure, strategy for development and growth, and management of the credit union system is discussed.
