Unsecured Loans

Based upon length of Credit Union membership, members may obtain unsecured (signature) loans up to $4,000 for a maximum period of 30 months. Loans above $4,000 require approved forms of collateral or security.

Collateral
Acceptable collateral includes: clear title to vehicle, member's shares or co-signer's shares. The Credit Union does not accept titles, deeds, abstracts to real estate or personal property (such as jewelry, furniture, stocks, bonds, certificates of deposit, etc.) for collateral.

When using a car as collateral, it is mandatory to:

  • obtain total comprehensive insurance made payable to the IWU Federal Credit Union to cover the amount of the loan.
  • send a copy of the policy from the insurance company to the IWU Business Office within 30 days of the day the loan is made - or the loan is subject to call.
