The short answer is YES. Here are few important things to know about how Maine credit unions are protected:
Federally insured credit unions offer a safe place for credit union members to save money. These deposits are protected by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund and insured up to at least $250,000 per individual depositor – the same as any other federally insured financial institution.
Credit union deposits in federally insured credit unions are safe and secure, and all Maine credit unions are federally insured.
Credit union members have never lost a penny of insured savings at a federally insured credit union.
All Maine credit unions are regularly examined by financial regulators to ensure proper management and maintain the safety and soundness of members’ money within the institution.
