In 1965, 14 employees met in the Dallas IBM facility’s lunchroom, collected $150, and founded the IBM Southwest Employees Federal Credit Union. As the FOM grew and diversified, the name was changed to YOUR Credit Union, as a “better reflection of the Credit Union’s strategic vision.”
With the advances in technology, which redefined banking convenience, along with a growing and younger mobile society, we determined that a new name was needed to convey our capability to meet the dynamic changes taking place in the market place. In 2014, we changed our name to MOBILITY Credit Union. The name depicts our ability to enable members to conduct banking transactions from anywhere and at any time, 365 days a year, 24 hours a day.
Mobility Credit Union is currently the 72nd largest credit union in Texas, with more than 21,000 members and assets in excess of $381 million.
