Protection For Your Savings

Credit Unions in Ghana are covered by the Deposit Protection Scheme (stabilization fund) which is administered by the CUA. This is a scheme that can provide compensation to depositors if the credit institution is forced to go out of business. Currently, with the scheme, Credit Unions are required to reserve an average of about 0.02% of members’ total savings.

With this, members can rest assured their savings and all interest earn are secured.
