Citadel Federal Credit Union has been named fourth in the nation for its products and services in the latest Callahan & Associates “Return of the Member” ranking, according to a staff report from the Daily Local News.

The independent research firm from Washington, D.C., has ranked Citadel fourth out of the 268 credit unions nationwide with assets of more than $1 billion. The Return of the Member list assesses credit unions with similar asset bases on three main criteria focused on how beneficial their financial products and services are to their customers.

The first is Return to the Saver that evaluates their deposit services while Return to the Borrower reviews how competitive their loan rates are and the flexibility of their terms. Finally, Product Usage examines how efficiently these products are provided to customers.

“We are honored to be recognized for what’s most important to us as an organization, which is providing value to our customers,” said Mike Schnably, senior vice president of Citadel.
