Bigger profits for them or lower interest rates for you? What would you choose?

WestForce Credit Union

Would you rather finance companies made bigger profits, or you paid less interest when you borrow money? Would you rather profits go off-shore, or your finances are managed by you and people in your neighbourhood?

Westforce is an independent credit union whose customers are its members. It offers similar products and services to finance companies and since leaving the NZ Association of Credit Unions, has introduced its own Debit Card & Mobile Accounts App, and moved to a NZ -based operating finance system.

Westforce is committed to providing some of the best lending available, leaving money in families’ pockets,” Victor Martick, Westforce GM, says.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
