B.C. credit unions with branches in Chilliwack and Abbotsford merge into a single federal entity
SURREY – Three credit unions in B.C., two of which have branches in Sardis (Chilliwack) and Abbotsford, announced last week they have finalized their combined merger into a single federal entity.
According to a news release dated May 6, Prospera, Coast Capital and Sunshine Coast credit unions say their merger is now effective, marking what they call a “defining moment” for cooperative banking in Canada.
The credit union says the milestone unites two provincially regulated credit unions and one federally regulated credit union into a single federal entity.
“Together, they form Canada’s largest national purpose-driven credit union—strengthening choice, access and value for Canadians,” a statement said.
