Lowland Credit Union Merging with ORNL Federal Credit Union
LCU intends to merge because members deserve both the personal, local service they enjoy today and the highest quality products and services in the market. By merging with ORNL FCU, members get both. All LCU branches will remain open, and all LCU employees are guaranteed a position in the combined organization. In addition, LCU members will gain access to ORNL FCU services including 24/7 call center support and industry-leading online and mobile banking services.
The Boards of both Credit Unions unanimously agreed that a merger would greatly benefit members and employees of both organizations in a number of ways:
ORNL Federal Credit Union is a not-for-profit, member-owned credit union serving members since 1948 with one branch in Morristown and 27 more branches throughout East Tennessee. They are member- and community-focused with a charter that overlaps LCU’s four counties. ORNL FCU offers members 24/7 call center support and industry leading online and mobile banking services.
