From the Chairman

Your Lender of First Choice

For the past several months, the financial news has been filled with stories about tighter credit, with both consumers and small businesses having trouble getting loans.

As a credit union, one of our primary roles is to loan money to members to help improve their personal and business lives. Ent sits in an enviable position because our past conservative approaches to both lending and investment of your deposits have allowed us to remain financially strong. And today, Ent has money to lend!

Many members have established equally conservative financial goals for 2010. We see that in strong growth in deposits and members paying down on loans to reduce debt. As a result, Ent has ample resources to help members who still need to borrow for a wide variety of purposes.

This summer, Ent is offering special rates for home equity and auto loans. In fact, members can take advantage of Ent car loan rates simply by asking for Ent financing right at their local new or used car dealer. (You’ll find more information on Ent’s preferred dealers online at Ent.com/PreferredDealers).

New this year is the Mortgage Freedom Loan – a special loan to help pay down your mortgage (up to $125,000) faster. It is an attractive option for members in or near retirement who want to reduce their debt burden.

Despite the economic downturn and individual efforts to manage their financial affairs better, members still need to borrow money for important purposes. At Ent, the same member-centered underwriting guidelines apply today as they did before the recession of 2007-2009. It is Ent’s goal to help members avoid financial situations they cannot expect to successfully manage.

Thus, Ent should be your lender of first choice because you know we’ll consider your request with your best interests in mind. And what is best for individual members continues to be best for the credit union as a whole.

Proudly serving you,

Tim Rickert
Chairman
