How does GHS compare to other credit unions?
PlainCU's health composite puts GHS at 59/100, compared to a peer group average for $100M–$500M credit unions. It's a weighted blend of five NCUA-reported figures: net worth ratio (30% of the score), delinquency rate (25%), return on assets (15%), member growth (15%), and loan-to-share ratio (15%).
What is a credit union health score?
A credit union health score is a composite rating (0–100) that combines five financial metrics reported to the NCUA: net worth ratio (capital adequacy), delinquency rate (loan quality), return on assets (profitability), member growth, and loan-to-share ratio (liquidity balance). Scores above 80 indicate excellent financial health; 60–79 is good; 40–59 is fair; below 40 is weak.
How can I join GHS?
GHS operates under a community charter, meaning membership is generally open to anyone who lives, works, worships, or attends school within its defined geographic service area, no employer or association tie required. Contact GHS directly for the exact boundaries and application steps.
Is my money safe at GHS?
Federal credit unions like GHS are insured by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF), administered by the NCUA. Each individual depositor is insured up to $250,000, the same limit as FDIC-insured banks. GHS's net worth ratio of 9.78% exceeds the 7% threshold NCUA considers "well capitalized."
What rates does GHS offer compared to banks?
Credit unions like GHS are not-for-profit cooperatives, which typically allows them to offer higher savings rates and lower loan rates than banks.
