Ethical Banking

Reliance FCU is a not-for-profit financial institution which means our profits go back to our members and the surrounding communities. Reliance sponsors educational resources to local high schools and middle schools for free, allowing thousands of students to have free access to financial support.

We actively support local charitable events and causes, such as Philabundance, an annual food drive to feed Philadelphia.

When you bank with Reliance FCU:

  • A portion of your loan interest goes to support local causes, education, and community goals

  • Your membership helps promote local and small businesses within the Greater Philadelphia Area

  • Support Reliance FCU’s core goal of promoting free financial educational resources

  • Excess profits return to members in dividend and rate promotions.

Credit Union Versus Banks

While several regional and national banks promote their charitable efforts, Reliance FCU doesn’t see community outreach as a goal - it’s our mission. Banks are owned by shareholders who seek to drive maximum profits - we’re owned and operated by our members.

Our goal is to support the community while providing the most affordable products and best member service support.

Compliance & Privacy

  • As required by the USA Patriot Act of 2001, which requires Reliance FCU to help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Reliance FCU must obtain basic identifying information from you and verify that information when you open a new account.

    This means Reliance FCU staff will ask you for some basic information, such as your name, address, date of birth, and other information designed to help us identify you. Reliance FCU staff may also ask to see documents identifying you too, such as a driver's license, passport, or some other government-issued document. Reliance FCU appreciates your patience and understanding as we do our part in complying with the new account identification procedures required by the Federal USA Patriot Act of 2001.

    Respectfully, the Board of Directors, Management, and Staff of Reliance FCU.

  • The Gramm‒Leach‒Bliley Act (GLBA) requires financial institutions to provide consumers with a privacy notice disclosing that a consumer’s nonpublic personal information (NPI) is shared with nonaffiliated third parties, describing the consumer’s ability to opt out of sharing practices in certain circumstances, and explaining how to exercise their right to opt out.3 The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (Bureau) Regulation P, 12 C.F.R. Part 1016, implements the GLBA privacy provisions.

    Regulation P defines NPI as personally identifiable financial information and any list, description, or other grouping of consumers (and publicly available information pertaining to them) that is derived using any personally identifiable financial information that is not publicly available.4

  • The Right to Financial Privacy Act of 1978 protects the confidentiality of personal financial records by creating a statutory Fourth Amendment protection for bank records. The Act was essentially a reaction to the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1976 ruling in United States v. Miller, where the Court found that bank customers had no legal right to privacy in financial information held by financial institutions. 425 U.S. 435 (1976).

    Generally, the RFPA requires that federal government agencies provide individuals with a notice and an opportunity to object before a bank or other specified institution can disclose personal financial information to a federal government agency, often for law enforcement purposes.
