The advantages of being a Member are significant
You own your financial institution
By becoming a Member, you choose to do business with an institution that belongs to you. You and your fellow-Members are co-owners of your financial institution.
One Member, one vote
As a Member, you can express your point of view and vote at annual general meetings, elect officers and give your opinion on matters concerning the development of your credit union in your community. Since a cooperative operates under the "one Member, one vote" principle, your vote carries the same weight as anyone else's.How can I become a Member?
Anyone who lives or works in the
Province of Ontario can become a Meridian Member. Although
there is no fee to join a credit union, you are required to hold $25.00
in Membership Shares. This entitles you access to all the services of
the credit union, and full rights as owner/shareholder. In the event you
choose to leave us these Membership Shares will be refunded to you.
To become a Member, just pass by your local branch to open an account.
