Who We Are!

We are a federally-chartered credit union serving residents of southeast Missouri since 1952. As our logo suggests, we are an experienced and trusted pillar of financial strength in the community.

We are a not-for-profit cooperative organization, which makes us unique in the financial community. We are owned by our members (7,900 strong) and our profits are returned to them in the form of higher dividend rates on savings deposits and lower interest rates on loans, plus low or no cost fees on services! We are a definite ALTERNATIVE to banks.

We are for Service

That's the ONLY reason we are here! PBFCU was organized simply to offer quality, economical services to our members and their families. We strive to promote responsible money management (savings and the wise use of credit) to help improve the standard of living of our members.

Our nine-member Board of Directors, as well as other volunteer committees, are unpaid credit union members who are serving on behalf of the entire membership.

We are innovative and committed to providing our members with the best possible service and products available.
