Rockland Federal Credit Union has been a federally chartered credit union since 1985.

What does it mean to be federally chartered?

Even though the word “federal” is included in our name, federal credit unions are not operated by the federal government. Federally chartered credit unions are regulated by the National Credit Union Association (NCUA), not the federal government.

In 1970, Congress established the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF), governed by the NCUA, to insure member share accounts held at federally insured credit unions. The NCUSIF protects accounts at federally insured credit unions up to $250,000, per account, per account owner. You can calculate an estimate of your federal deposit insurance coverage here.

RFCU share accounts are additionally insured by the Massachusetts Share Insurance Corporation (MSIC) for all shares and deposits in excess of the NCUSIF (NCUA) limit.
