SANTA FE, N.M.— Del Norte Credit Union has been voted Santa Fe’s Best Financial Institution and Best Lender in 2018 by the readers of The Santa Fe Reporter, coming in at #1 in both categories.
The recognition marks the eighth consecutive year that DNCU has been selected by Reporter readers for excellent financial products and services. In addition, DNCU was also proclaimed among the best on Cerrillos Rd. and the St. Michael’s corridor—a business section of the poll – a first for any financial insitution.
“This recognition symbolizes a huge achievement for our excellent staff,” said Chuck Valenti, DNCU’s president/CEO. “It reflects their dedication to provide our members with financial advice they can trust while providing exceptional personalized customer service. DNCU’s mission of improving lives in Northern New Mexico is what inspires our employees to go the extra mile every day. As a not-for-profit financial cooperative, we strive to provide more than just banking services, we seek to uplift our communities while being your ideal partner for a better future.”
Added Deb Salazar, DNCU’s COO says, “It is this home-town feel along with the technology you’d expect from a much larger bank that allows DNCU to stand out as the region’s leading financial institution.”
