Election World Business they typically hold the mortgages they make on their own books and only dabble in subprime put them in a position to grab market share while national banks auto finance companies credit card outfits and private student loan firms cut back on loans. In good times you d say these guys are much too conservative says George Hofheimer chief research officer of the credit union focused Filene Research Institute. But in times like these it s just what the doctor ordered. Credit unions aren t shy about having money to lend. Speed s outfit the member Texas Dow Employees Credit Union TDECU has been running TV spots since August and is doubling its ad budget for the fourth quarter. At times TDECU has been accused of being too aggressive community banks which have also been faring relatively well and the FDIC loudly objected when one ad painted the entire banking industry as under a dark cloud. To meet loan demand TDECU is borrowing from corporate credit unions and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas but even then we may not have enough money to go around says Speed especially now that car dealerships jilted by the finance arms of auto companies are flooding the credit union with calls. The lending spree is a scene playing out at credit unions across the country though that s not to say the industry has escaped the financial meltdown completely unscathed.

Now that the credit crunch is rolling full tilt into the real economy even credit unions with the benefit of geography likely won t be able to escape the effects of recession. At the member Unitus Community Credit Union in Portland Ore. loan volume is up this year in nearly every category in mortgages in student loans in credit cards but so are delinquencies. Since the beginning of the year late payments have increased from . to . . Even by the standards of credit unions which tend to have much lower delinquency rates than banks those figures are worth bragging about but Unitus CEO Patricia Smith isn t standing idly by. Three weeks ago she hired the credit union s first work out specialist to start pouring through loan data and making pre emptive calls to people who might need help the sort of down home we care solution credit unions sell themselves on. And they do continue to sell themselves. In early October Smith was one of nine CEOs who signed onto a newspaper ad touting the benefits of credit unions. We are financial institutions without shareholders or Wall Street investors the ad read. The credit unions of Oregon are owned by . million regular people Oregonians just like you. Says Smith It s very unfortunate what s happened in the banking industry. There are a lot of good people hurting. But from our standpoint it does give us an opportunity to say we re here. And we re still lending. Connect to this TIME Story Interact with this story onclick return fbs click target blank class fb share link Facebook Email Vignette StoryServer .
