1. Eastern Credit Union is one of the larger credit unions located in Trinidad and Tobago. Eastern provides an array of services including Trinidad loans, Trinidad mortgages, and savings and investment options.

2. Credit unions are preferred by many due to the fact that, unlike corporate banks, credit unions are owned by its members, not wealthy, public shareholders. With credit unions, members have direct say in the decisions that the union makes, as well as the directions of policies the union moves toward.
