Local Decision Making
Being locally owned and operated means that all decisions are made right here, from approving a loan to introducing a new product or service. Motor City also benefits from being a part of a national system of credit unions that work co-operatively on the national, provincial and local level to guide members in achieving financial well-being. Motor City’s Financial Services Representatives can help you get there. Co-operative banking the credit union way sets us apart.
As the credit union system started to develop in those early years, the auto sector began some of their own operations when three Ford Motor employees groups formed credit unions in 1943, followed in 1944 by the Motorco plants #1 and #3 Chrysler employees. As these credit unions mainly consisted of employees of specific companies, they were known as "closed bond" financial institutions.
Over the next decade several credit unions were formed to assist the workers of various Companies throughout the region. Over time they began to share ideas, help each other and eventually combine efforts to form larger financial institutions. As the financial industry changed, so did the makeup of the local credit union system, with many of the "closed bond" credit unions combining operations and opening their doors to all residents of Windsor and Essex County.
Some of the other credit unions that form our rich heritage are:
Motorco Savings & Credit

Windsor Dominion Civil Servants Credit

Windsor Municipal Employees Credit Union,

Motor Employees (Windsor) Credit Union Limited,

The Board of Directors of Motor City is the decision-making team behind your credit union. Simply stated, the Board determines where we’re going, that we know how to get there, and that we follow the rules along the way.
As a member you can help shape the Board by exercising your right to vote in branch or electronically. You can also become a candidate for the Board yourself. We encourage all our members to actively participate in the democracy of our financial co-operative, whether through voting or becoming a Director. Having a Board that is elected by members is one of our key differences.
Our Board of Directors are dedicated volunteers. They oversee and are ultimately responsible for our strategic and financial planning/performance, compliance with legislation and regulations and the satisfaction of members, staff and other stakeholders.
