Our History

Then …

Melbourne University Credit Union was incorporated on the 12th February 1970 and has been a big part of the University of Melbourne community ever since. Established by a small, but dedicated group of Directors who believed that everyone should have access to loans and basic deposit products, MUCU had $13.50 in assets and 9 members by the end of March 1970.

“Everyone should have access to loans and basic deposit products”


C. Sach, W.F. Wood, J. Bythe (member no. 1), D. Harvey (Member no. 4)

Now …

Since that time we’ve grown significantly.

While the values on which the credit union was founded apply just as strongly today, it now provides financial products to over 2,000 individuals and businesses, in the University of Melbourne community. MUCU’s business model is based on fairness, personal service and recognition that its members are the prime purpose of its existence. Members enjoy rights that other shareholder-owned and driven organisations will not offer.

Melbourne University Credit Union puts people before profit.

Along with all banks and building societies, MUCU is under the supervision of the Australian Regulation Authority (APRA) to ensure that our members are given a high level of safety in their dealings with their financial service provider.
