📖 Understanding Your Credit Union's Financial Statement
Monday September 22, 2025 4:00pm - 5:00pm EDT
As a credit union director, it is crucial to understand your credit union's financial statement because it provides a comprehensive overview of the organization's financial health. The financial statement contains important information about the credit union's assets, liabilities, income, and expenses, which can help you make informed decisions about the organization's future.

By understanding your credit union's financial statement, you can identify areas of strength and weakness, and make strategic decisions to improve the credit union's financial performance. For example, if you notice that the credit union's expenses are increasing faster than its income, you may need to adjust the budget or look for ways to increase revenue. Similarly, if you see that the credit union's loan portfolio is growing rapidly, you may need to ensure that the credit union has adequate reserves to cover potential losses.

Furthermore, understanding the financial statement can help you fulfill your fiduciary responsibilities as a credit union director. You have a duty to act in the best interests of the credit union and its members, and understanding the financial statement is essential to fulfilling this duty. By monitoring the credit union's financial performance and making informed decisions, you can help ensure the long-term success of the credit union and its ability to serve its members.

In summary, understanding your credit union's financial statement is critical to making informed decisions, identifying areas of strength and weakness, fulfilling your fiduciary responsibilities, and ensuring the long-term success of the credit union.
