New CU Daily Cast interview features insights from NCBA’s Doug O’Brien
With 144 million members nationwide, credit unions are a core part of the cooperative economy in the U.S. But credit union members don't always think of themselves as part of the broader cooperative ecosystem.
NCBA CLUSA President and CEO Doug O'Brien recently sat down with CU Daily Cast Host Walter Laskos to dispel that myth.
They also discussed advocacy, the next generation of cooperative leaders and why co-ops are key drivers of local jobs, community investment, ownership and long-term resilience.
Led by credit union journalist Frank J. Diekmann, CU Daily is an independent digital news source covering the U.S. credit union community.
