It’s thrilling to announce we will return $760,000 to Goldenwest members in December 2013 through our share-savings bonus dividend program. Over the course of 10 years, Goldenwest members have collectively earned $5.875 million with the bonus dividend.

The Board of Directors declared the one-time bonus dividend of 4.25% Annual Percentage Yield (APY). Combined with the monthly dividend of 0.10% APY, members will earn a total of 4.35% APY for December 2013.

It’s been a historic year for Goldenwest! Upon NCUA approval of our merger with USU Credit Union, we expanded our branch network from 21 to 26 offices, and shortly thereafter, our combined assets exceeded $1 billion dollars.

As we wrap up the year, we anticipate solid finishes in loan growth, return on assets and net capital. Our credit union is strong, and remains focused on providing our members with the financial products and services needed for a successful 2014.

Merry Christmas, and Best Wishes for a Prosperous New Year!
