ROME, NY – NOVEMBER 3, 2023: AmeriCU President and CEO Ronald Belle addressed the current membership and community on the financial challenges many individuals may be facing due to high inflation and the cost of borrowing. The additional pressure on budgets can make it hard to know what the right financial decisions are, stressed Belle. AmeriCU Credit Union is here to help with knowledgeable representatives available to provide assistance and resources to navigate member’s unique financial needs.

AmeriCU has Member Relationship Advisors and Certified Financial Counselors on staff to meet with individuals to discuss their personal finances. These representatives can help members make informed financial decisions, review credit reports, identify ways to lower payments, consolidate debt, and rework budgets for financial stability and long-term success.

The credit union also offers free financial wellness and education programs. With a combination of instructor-led onsite presentations and self-serve online tools, these programs provide tips on a range of topics and help equip consumers with essential information and strategies for financial success.

“At AmeriCU our number one priority is always our members financial well-being,” said Ron Belle, AmeriCU President and CEO. “As a credit union, AmeriCU was founded on the principle of people helping people, over 73 years ago. As we’ve grown and evolved over the years one thing has remained – our commitment to our member-owners.”

AmeriCU invites you to connect with their team to reach your goals and build a path toward long-term financial freedom. The credit union’s experienced team of professionals is dedicated to helping individuals, businesses, and communities to live life, dream big, and achieve financial success.
