message from the president
Members,
Recently, NavyArmy FCU sent you a letter regarding our proposal to change from a federal charter
to a State of Texas charter. This change would provide NavyArmy the opportunity to continue serving
our current field of membership and to expand into additional geographic areas of Texas.
NavyArmy’s level of service and commitment to you, the member, will not change. Simply put, under our current federal charter, NavyArmy can only serve the population of six local counties. With a state charter, NavyArmy will be able to expand into other geographic areas; thereby supporting the vision of your Board of Directors and Administration. Any expansion will be developed with safety and soundness as the focal point.
Here are some things that you should know: Will there be less governance with a state charter? NO, NavyArmy will receive the same scrutiny from the state examination as we do under federal governance.
Will our dividends/fee structure change? NO. Charter designation has no direct effect on dividend or fee structure.
Do I have to write my account number on the ballot? You can write the last four digits of the account number if you wish. The request is only to assist the audit firm with vote validation.
Will we still be insured up to $250,000 by the federal government agency, National Credit Union Administration (NCUA)? YES. Under a state charter, your accounts continue to be backed by the full faith and credit of the NCUA.
As a member/owner of Navy Army, your vote is extremely important to us. To vote for this important change, you can either mail your vote using the absentee ballot and postage-paid envelope mailed to you. Or you can submit it at the July 21, 2011 charter membership meeting which will be held at Sokol Hall, 5502 Kostoryz Road, Corpus Christi, Texas at 6:00 p.m. NOTE: If you mail your absentee ballot, it must be received PRIOR TO THE START of the membership meeting to be counted as a valid vote.
We appreciate your support and thank you for your assistance in this important matter.
