PROVO, Utah — Utah Community Credit Union (UCCU) and TransWest Credit Union (TransWest) are pleased to announce that their merger has been completed. This strategic union brings together two strong, member-focused credit unions under the UCCU name, creating a combined organization that now serves over 285,000 members with assets exceeding $3.5 billion.
“This merger is all about bringing together two healthy credit unions that share a commitment to local decision-making and community involvement,” said UCCU President and CEO Justin Olson. “By uniting as one, we’re able to provide even greater value to our members, expand our resources, and strengthen our ability to serve our communities for generations to come.”
Former TransWest Credit Union President and CEO Steven Pratt added, “Joining with UCCU ensures that our members continue to receive the very best financial products and services, while staying true to our shared values and community spirit. This is a great day for TransWest members, and I am confident that together we will create an even stronger credit union.”
All TransWest members are now UCCU members, with access to expanded products and services that support their financial goals. Now that these two credit unions have joined forces, UCCU operates 25 full-service branch locations, including four new branches in Salt Lake County. This growth and expanded presence not only provides members with greater convenience and access, but also reinforces the credit union’s long-term stability and ongoing commitment to the communities they serve.
