Greetings!
Another year has come and gone and we have arrived at 2012. The year that was 2011 was filled with unique challenges and some surprises that no one expected: the Occupy Movement and Bank Transfer Day. With so much upheaval in the financial services industry, we are excited about the increased interest that consumers have taken toward credit unions.
In 2011, we promised to "invest in each other" and it would appear that others took notice. We grew by over 20% and were able to open our first branch outside Jackson. What does 2012 bring? We're not completely sure, but we're confident that it will be the "year of the credit union"!
Thank you for your continued business with Leaders. We're excited about what this new year will bring, and hope you will be as well. We wish you our best in your personal and professional pursuits, and want you to know that we will be ready when you need us to help!
Warm regards,
Todd Swims President & CEO |

Resolve to Protect Your Identity in 2012 Member Protection Checking from Leaders CU can help
 In 2011, 26 million private consumer financial records were exposed, resulting in over $4,600 in lost wealth per consumer, not to mention the over 80 man-hours of time spent recovering their identity. We don't know about you, but for us, that's a lot of money and headache!
Fortunately, Leaders Credit Union has recognized this epidemic and has developed a checking account to help you protect your identity and your wealth. With Member Protection Checking for $4.95 per month, you get:
- Identity Theft restoration through Identity Theft 911.
- $10,000 in Accidental Death and Dismemberment insurance.
- Additional Pharmacy, Vision and Travel benefits.
- 3 "out of network" ATM usage refunds on demand.
- And more! Read on here.
Not sure that Member Protection is right for you, but looking for a new checking account? We've provided this easy-to-understand chart so that you can choose the account that best fits your needs. |

It Just Keeps Getting Better Leaders ensures you get the best auto rate on the market
 You've always known Leaders as the place to finance anything on wheels. We're certainly continuing that tradition with our new auto loan rate of 2.95% APR*. While our rates have dipped to a historic low on both our auto and recreational vehicles, they may not stay that way for long. If you're in the market for a new car, truck, motorcycle or RV, remember to give Leaders the first look, and save both time and money.
If you're stretched for time, we offer many new and convenient ways to finance your new wheels. You don't have to come by the branch these days to nab the great rate that we offer; instead, visit our website to apply using our online application, or you can visit the dealer and finance right at the dealership if you're shopping at select dealers in Jackson, Humboldt, Henderson, Union City or Martin.
Whether you finance in-branch, at the dealer or from the comfort of your own home, we're making sure you get the most vehicle your money can buy! |

In mid-November, construction crews began work to renovate our newest branch at 1500 S. First Street in Union City. We plan to host a grand re-opening of this branch once construction has completed in late February or early March.
