Requirements
To open a Member Savings Account, you will need:
Protection for Your Savings
Credit Unions in Ghana are covered by the Deposit Protection Scheme (Stabilization Fund) which is administered by the CUA. This is a scheme that can provide compensation to depositors if the credit institution is forced to go out of business.
With this, members can rest assured their savings and all interests earned are secured.
Savings Policies
Important policies governing your savings account:
The savings balance of any one member shall not exceed 20% of the total savings of the Union or as determined by the Board of Directors from time to time.
Savings cannot be withdrawn if they are frozen to guarantee a loan. Neither can savings be withdrawn if the member's indebtedness is greater than the member's savings.
Interest on savings shall be determined by the Board of Directors from time to time to ensure competitive returns for our members.
