Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union Earns 5-Star Superior Rating

April 18, 2011 - PRLog -- TICONDEROGA, NY – The Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union (TFCU) takes great pride in receiving a 5-Star Superior rating for financial strength and stability from BAUER FINANCIAL, INC.  5-Stars is the highest rating attainable and is based on the overall financial picture of the institution.

Earning a 5-Star rating indicates that Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union is one of the strongest credit unions in the nation. In fact, TFCU has earned this highest honor for 68 consecutive quarters. Only 10% of the nation’s credit unions can claim this distinction.

Dorway, president of BAUER FINANCIAL has high praise for Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union. “The staff and management of Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union should be very proud to work for such a strong credit union,” notes Dorway.  “Often the general public does not know the financial strengths or weaknesses of their financial institution. BAUER FINANCIAL’s ratings help to assure members, and the rest of the community that they are dealing with a strong financial institution that will be able to fulfill their banking needs for years to come.”
