Dominion Royal Credit Union Selects CCS Prepaid Platform
International disbursement
program for international credit union
London 25SEP08 -
CCS UK Ltd
has signed an agreement with Dominion Royal Credit Union to
provide a membership payout card for their 3000 members.
Dominion Royal is a european credit union and economic
association, innovative in private equity funds, a significant
co-investor in direct investments, and an active provider of
liquidity and portfolio management solutions to existing private
equity investors.
Dominion
Royal primarily makes commitments to private equity funds
located in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom,
Continental Europe, Latin America and Asia with strategies that
include leveraged buyouts, growth financings, natural resources,
venture capital and distressed securities.
Credit unions are democratic, member-owned financial
cooperatives. Each member, regardless of account size in the
credit union, may run for the board and cast a vote in
elections. As financial intermediaries, credit unions finance
their loan portfolios by mobilizing member savings and shares
rather than using outside capital, thus providing opportunities
for generations of members.
The card program which is scheduled to go live at the end of
October will effectively consolidate the payout of investment
dividends and account withdrawals in the form of a prepaid card that will be issued to
the members of Dominion Royal presently predominantly residing
within North America and Europe. Traditionally payouts have been
made as cheque and the interest in a prepaid card program has
been fueled by the need to provide a more rapid means for payout
as well as the long term strategical need for a more cost
efficient way to payout to members dispersed globally.
We have long recognised
the
emergence of credit unions worldwide which empower their members
financial growth and education through access to high quality
and affordable financial services. The
opportunity to facilitate business process improvements for
Dominion Royal through the use of a prepaid card platform is an
exciting opportunity for CCS. This will help in providing
additional value to the strategic evolution of the unions
corporate directives" says Mark McDonald, Director CCS.
Trudy Huynh,
director of Dominion Royal says "finding a solution that would
allow our credit union to process payments to our members is
vital to our growth in North America and worldwide. Dominion
Royal is excited in working with CCS in implementing the prepaid
card platform immediately."
