How WyHy Compares to Traditional Banks
Wondering how credit unions stack up against banks? Let’s take a look at the key differences between WyHy and traditional banks:
- Ownership Structure: Credit unions are member-owned, meaning profits are returned to members in the form of better rates and services. Banks are shareholder-owned, meaning profits are distributed to stockholders, not customers.
- Lower Fees: Credit unions tend to have lower fees for services like checking accounts, ATM withdrawals, and overdrafts, while banks may charge higher fees and penalties.
- Better Service: WyHy provides a personalized service that focuses on building strong relationships with our members, unlike banks that prioritize transactions.
- WyHy’s Community Engagement: At WyHy, we are dedicated to supporting local communities with charitable efforts, financial education, and partnerships, unlike large banks focused on profits.
