RCCU introduced Member Share Capital at the end of 2006 for stabilising its capital by separating members’ shares/equity from their savings. Shares are the “capital” foundation of the Credit Union, and the more members invest by buying additional shares the stronger it becomes. Members earn dividends on Shares, and RCCU paid out dividends of 6% in 2007 and 2008.

From October, members who buy more Member Shares will receive a gift and qualify for draws with the opportunity to win more Shares.  One Share costs only $50.
