High Desert FCU Sold To Alaska USA FCU
Alaska USA FCU, of Anchorage, AK will purchase certain assets and assume the shares and certain liabilities of the $102 million credit union and will service the credit union's 11,000 members.
The NCUA took over the credit union because of operational issues. The NCUA had operated the credit union until a merger with or purchase by another credit union could be arranged.
