What This Data Says About Consumers

Charter #16951, peer group $100M–$500M, a cohort of 1069 similarly-sized institutions: that's Consumers, a federal credit union in Brooklyn, New York with 3,178 members, $105.0M in total assets, and $90.5M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025. The five-factor composite scores it 78/100 (Very Good), helped by a net worth ratio of 10.78% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules.

Loan book quality rounds out the picture. The delinquency rate of 0.12% measures loans 60+ days past due against total loans outstanding - the peer group average for $100M–$500M credit unions sits at 0.894%, so this institution is running tighter than peers. The loan-to-share ratio of 101.08% indicates how aggressively member deposits are being deployed into lending, above the 80% band that can indicate tighter liquidity management. Return on assets stands at 0.34% on net income of $359K for the period; a not-for-profit cooperative typically runs a modest positive ROA, returning surplus to members through better rates and lower fees rather than to shareholders.

Year-over-year membership changed by -6.86%. All of the above reflects the 2025Q4 quarterly NCUA 5300 Call Report. Who can join depends on the field of membership (currently: Other/Community); our disclaimer covers NCUSIF deposit-insurance coverage and how to use this data responsibly.
