We are constantly aware of the needs of our members to make an informed decision when choosing a financial institution. After all, they are trusting us with one of the most sacred of their lives, their pocketbooks. In response to this need, RCCU acquired a state of art operating system that provides additional security and ease of access to the account. We've created health savings, money market accounts and second chance for members of the credit checking accounts with irregular. We continue to provide outreach to volunteer our time and offer financial support to some of the local primary and secondary schools.
Since 2008, we have five branches open right choice. We also recognize the need of our members have for products other than CDs and Christmas Club accounts. Therefore, we have partnered with CUSO Financial Services (CFS), a brokerage firm nationally recognized exclusively dedicated to serving credit unions and their members. The services offered include mutual funds, annuities, insurance products, securities, U.S. Government and more.
The last 32 years have been full of growth, change and opportunity. There is no doubt that we will experience the same in the coming decades. However, we remain committed to providing the best products and services in the industry
History
The Jamaica Special Constabulary Co-operative Credit Union movement began in 1968 when members of the Constabulary Force realized they had no choice but to borrow loans against high interest rates in order to survive. The interest rates charged by the usurers were so high that some members had to turn in their entire salary for payback.
Messrs L. Golding, C. Messias, J. Campbell, C. Brown capitalized on the suggestion of forming a Savings Union. With the aid of Rev. Thorbourne and Mr. Orville Hutchinson the Jamaica Special Constabulary Co-operative Credit Union was born.
Mr. E. C. Murray was the first Treasurer of the Credit Union. This post was later handed over to Mr. Leon Bailey who was the Assistant Treasurer/Secretary from the start of the Credit Union. In 1982 Mr. R. O. Thomas was appointed Treasurer/Secretary followed by Sergeant Gosma Buddoo. His successor Corporal Derrick Brown served the Credit Union until March 1992.
Since then JSC Co-operative Credit Union was graced with the presence of another stalwart, Commandant Osmond Bromfield, then Inspector. He took the Credit Union from under 6 million dollars to almost 1 billion dollars in asset base.
Today, in addition to the Headquarter located at 9 Union Square, the Credit Union has three branches located in Mandeville, Hanover and St. Mary.
