National Workers Co-Operative Credit Union Limited was the first registered Credit Union in the Bahamas. It was registered with the Department of Co-operatives on November 17, 1976.

Mr. Edward "Bobby" Glinton who was an active Trade Unionist at the time initiated the formation of NWCCU after returning from an ILO (International Labor Organization) sponsored course in Geneva. Mr. Glinton served as the first Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Credit Union.

Our Main Office is located on Harold Road on the Workers House Compound on the Island of New Providence. We have two other full Branches, one located on the corner of East Bay Street and Okra Hill, and the other in the Workers House Complex on East Settlers Way in Freeport, Grand Bahama.

National Workers Co-Operative Credit Union Limited has an asset base in excess of $26,000,000.00 and is considered one of the larger Credit Unions in the Bahamas. The Credit Union has taken a more aggressive approach in the local market and has launched several new products and services recently. We are a progressive institution providing sound financial services and products to our members.
