FAQs

General

Why are you changing your name?

Our credit union was originally founded to serve educators in Burlington County, NJ. Since then, we’ve evolved and grown to serve a diverse field of membership across South Jersey that encompasses school systems, healthcare providers, a variety of companies and whole communities. It’s time for a new name that recognizes our roots, while offering a more relevant and exciting brand to both our existing and potential members. We wanted to have a name that is inspirational and that reflects the strong values of our credit union. This more powerful identity will help us to appeal to a broader audience and enable us to grow and compete in an increasingly competitive financial landscape.

Is the change due to a merger?

No. Our brand update is not the result of any merger or acquisition of ABCO Credit Union.

When will the name change go into effect?

The official launch of the EdiFi Credit Union will be July 1, 2024.

Will EdiFi continue to be a federally chartered credit union?

Yes. While we are not required to include the word "Federal" in our name for marketing and advertising, EdiFi will continue to operate as a federally charted credit union.

Are any employees losing their jobs due to the rebranding?

No, the name change will not affect the employment of our team.
