Financial Counseling


Chris McPherson, Lending Manager and Certified Financial Counselor at BOND, talks about his gig and what makes it special. Hint: you're not gonna find a financial counselor also playing loan manager at a for-profit bank; they've got sales goals and quotas to meet, while Chris gets to focus on the most important thing here at BOND: you.

Chris McPherson is our in-house Credit Union Financial Counselor. He's also our Chief Lending Officer, but whether you’re applying for a loan or not, he welcomes all financial questions, including credit issues, future planning, and how to prepare for life’s little ups and downs.

All counseling is free to our members, and we’re never pushy about our products and services. Unlike most banks, our staff is not burdened by sales quotas, so we can focus on helping our members and our community.

Not for Profit, Not for Charity, But for Service.

Credit Report Check-up

Chris McPherson, Lending Manager and Certified Financial Counselor at BOND, explains why your credit rating is so important.

Your credit report is only a fraction of your financial portfolio, but as the current credit crunch continues to tighten lending options, your credit score is more important than ever. You should obtain your credit report annually just to check it over. Make sure to scan it thoroughly for incorrect information, fraudulent activity, or outright identity theft.

AnnualCreditReport.com* is an authorized resource for obtaining a free credit report from all three bureaus - Equifax, Experian and Trans Union. Getting the report is free; however, be aware of "additional services" (with fees).
