Greater Alliance Federal Credit Union is a member-owned financial cooperative that was founded in 1937 when five dedicated educators chartered what was then known as Central Bergen Teacher's Federal Credit Union. The organization began to expand its field of membership in the mid 1980s under the sanction of the NCUA (National Credit Union Administration) to include a diverse mix of employee groups, and associations - and became known as Central Bergen Federal Credit Union.
In addition to the more than 255 employee groups which the credit union has served, including some of Northern New Jersey’s largest hospitals, corporations and municipalities, the organization changed its charter to become a community credit union. Now, anyone who lives, works, worships, does business, volunteers or attends school in Bergen or Passaic county is eligible for membership.
As a result of our charter change, Greater Alliance Federal Credit Union has rapidly expanded the membership base in Bergen and Passaic Counties. We remain committed to provide superior financial services to all our members.
“We will continue to develop an alliance with our members. For all existing and future members we are confident our “Greater†service and member friendly atmosphere will prove that Greater Alliance Federal Credit Union, is clearly a Greater way to Bankâ€, said Patrick McGrath, President and CEO. In 2006, our state of the art branch and corporate office opened for business at 40 West Century Road in Paramus, N.J. We are extremely thrilled to see so many new members visit us regularly at our Paramus branch, as well as, being very proud of the long term success of the relationships with members our Hackensack branch continues to provide and service.
Our long term strategic direction is to continue to evaluate branch sites in Bergen and Passaic counties and to never loose sight of Greater Alliance’s mission while continuing everyday to earn the respect and recognition by our members as their Premier Financial Institution.
“A wonderful tradition of superior service and overall dedication to our members have been built over the last 70 plus years and I am firmly committed to assure the continuing success of Greater Alliance and to maintaining a strong commitment to fulfilling our credit union visionâ€, stated Mr. McGrath.
