CUNA is accepting entries for the 2012 Credit Union Excellence in Lending Awards through 9/7. The awards recognize credit unions that implemented innovative methods to serve their members while sustaining sound financial performance in 2011. Recipients will be chosen for distinction in consumer (includes home equity) lending, mortgage lending, business lending or low/modest means lending for the year 2011. The following categories are available:

     • Consumer Lending Excellence Award (assets less than $250M);
     • Consumer Lending Excellence Award (assets of $250M or more);
     • Mortgage Lending Excellence Award (assets of less than $250M);
     • Mortgage Lending Excellence Award (assets of $250M or more);
     • Low/Modest Means Lending Award (any asset level); and
     • Business Lending Award (any asset level).

Applications may be submitted by any Association/CUNA member credit union that has not won a Lending Award in the past three years. Throughout the year, winning credit unions will be recognized in credit union publications, on a website dedicated to help credit unions achieve success in lending and at the CUNA Lending Council’s annual conference, scheduled for November 4-7 in Miami Beach, Fla. For more information or to download an application, visit the CUNA Lending Council website.
