Sydney Credit Union (SCU) is a member-owned credit union, which was established in 1963.
It was originally formed to serve City of Sydney council members, but expanded to include a number of other Sydney-based councils. Most of its branches are now located in the Western Suburbs of Sydney.
As a credit union, it is owned by members and not shareholders, which means profits go back into the business and are redistributed to members via lower fees and rates.
