WHITEFISH, Mont. — Whitefish Credit Union has declared a 0.94% dividend for the six months ended June 30, 2017.
The payout is a 38% increase over the 0.68% declared at Dec. 31, 2016.
“We are constantly striving to provide our members with the best products and services available, and our new dividend rate is a reflection of that commitment,” said Whitefish Credit Union President Jim Kenyon in a released statement. “As a member-owned credit union, our dividend is a way for us to share our continued success directly with our members. We mean it when we say that we are the best place to save and the best place to borrow.”
The credit union said the new dividend is among the highest available nationally for a savings account, and it also outperforms nearly all money market, CD, or investment accounts, most of which require a high minimum balance to be eligible for a comparable rate.
