  1. Outsourcing and Sharing Credit Union Management

    The purpose of the research reported here is to learn how credit unions who wish to retain their identity can remain viable through shared management. We identified four successful models of organizations that provide shared management services. These models were explored and discussed in detail at a colloquium sponsored by the Filene Research Institute and the Center for Credit Union Research at the University of Wisconsin.

    This report provides guidance for entrepreneurial individuals or organizations who may wish to replicate or modify one of these models, in order to provide management services to credit unions that want to retain their identity rather than merge out of existence.

    We're annoyed by questions like this too, but we're even more annoyed by spam (except the yummy canned kind).
