MAPLE GROVE, Minn., Oct. 03, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Local member-owned financial cooperative TopLine Federal Credit Union has been named “Best Credit Union” in Twin Cities Business Magazine’s annual “Best of Business” contest for the second year in a row. The magazine’s yearly survey asks their readership, "Which companies exemplify true excellence in their respective industries and would they confidently refer to a family member, friend or colleague?” and published results in its September issue and online.
In naming TopLine as Best Credit Union, the magazine pointed to several qualities that make TopLine stand out, including the credit union’s foundation that was established in 2015 to support the cooperative spirit of “people helping people”—to connect, care and contribute in the communities it serves with fundraisers for scholarships and donations to local non-profit community partners; financial education and counseling for all ages; and recognition from the Minnesota Credit Union Network for community impact and outreach.
“Once again we are honored to be recognized as the best credit union by the readers of Twin Cities Business Magazine,” says Tom Smith, President and CEO at TopLine Federal Credit Union. “We are committed to the betterment of our employees, members and the communities we serve – and would like to extend our gratitude for their valued support. We couldn’t get to where we are today without having exceptional employees who are passionate about building life-long relationships to help our members and communities with their financial needs, nor without our member-owners and community partners that believe in our philosophy of helping each other.”
