What This Data Says About ALTON MUNICIPAL EMPLOYEES

ALTON MUNICIPAL EMPLOYEES is a federal credit union headquartered in ALTON, Illinois, serving 246 members with $455K in total assets and $302K in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025.

Return on assets comes in at 0.00%, reflecting the not-for-profit cooperative model where surplus earnings flow back to members as better rates and lower fees rather than to shareholders. The loan-to-share ratio of 106.15% indicates how aggressively member deposits are being deployed into lending, above the 80% band that can indicate tighter liquidity management.

Every deposit account at ALTON MUNICIPAL EMPLOYEES is federally insured by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF) up to $250,000 per depositor, per ownership category — identical coverage to FDIC insurance at banks. Year-over-year membership changed by -0.40%, and the institution reports against the NCUA 5300 Call Report on a quarterly cadence, so the figures above reflect the 2025Q4 reporting period.
