How it all started

Established in April 1977, Ohio Valley Federal Credit Union is a non-profit, full-service financial institution with assets approaching $20 million and serving over 5,000 members.

Originally the credit union was chartered as Milacron Employees Federal Credit Union, to serve the employees of Cincinnati Milacron, Inc. In later years, the name was changed to Milacru Federal Credit Union, and more recently to Ohio Valley Federal Credit Union to better serve a more diverse field of membership. With deregulation in the 1980s, the credit union was permitted to accept groups and organizations outside the industrial field, which gave even more people the benefit of credit union membership.

Ohio Valley FCU is a federally chartered credit union, organized under strict regulatory laws that are monitored and enforced by the National Credit Union Administration, an agency of the U.S. Government. The NCUA insures each member’s account up to a total of $100,000.

In addition, ASI/ESI (Excess Share Insurance) insures each member's account for an additional $250,000 for a total combined coverage of $350,000.
