About South Metro

Our History

South Metro Federal Credit Union was established in 1993, as a member-owned, not-for-profit financial cooperative. Our field of membership includes anyone living or working in Scott, Hennepin, and Carver counties of Minnesota. We also serve select consumer food cooperatives, housing cooperatives and their members in the upper Midwest.

South Metro Federal Credit Union was chartered in 1993 by the National Credit Union Association. Our sponsor, the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux (Dakota) Community was instrumental in the initial support in establishing the institution. In July 2017 our charter was expanded to include Hennepin and Carver County in addition to Scott County.

   

Your Deposits are Safe with Us!

Your deposits are insured up to $500,000. The first $250,000.00 is insured the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), an agency of the U.S. government. The remainder of the coverage is provided Excess Share Insurance. You can learn more about Excess Share Insurance by visiting their website at www.excessshare.com.

A credit union is a non-profit, member-owned financial institution governed by its members. Since there are no outside stockholders, all earnings are retained in the credit union. For this reason, credit unions generally pay higher returns on savings and charge lower interest rates on loans than other financial institutions. Once operating expense and reserve requirements are satisfied, the income generated by loans and investments is returned to the members in the form of dividends and expanded low-cost services.

As a credit union member, you are not a “customer” but part-owner of a financial cooperative in which all the members pool their resources to help one another. Credit unions are dedicated to the principle of “People helping people,” and have a not-for-profit tax status similar to churches, charities and other groups that work to better the lives of those involved.

South Metro Federal Credit Union is directed by a volunteer board, elected by the membership, which is entrusted to keep the members’ best interests in mind, every day, all year long. Your account will never be sold to an out-of-state bank. You will always have a voice regarding the direction of your financial institution.

Credit unions also have a special commitment to reach out to persons who might otherwise be unable to obtain affordable financial services elsewhere. For more information about credit unions, visit MyCreditUnion.gov.

SouthMet Testimonials

I refinanced my home recently and saved over $600 a month. The rates are great and the staff made the whole process totally trouble free. I did not realize I could recognize this amount of savings per month. It has made all the difference. – Grace
