U.S. Eagle Named One of Forbes’ Best-In-State Credit Unions for 2025

Jul 2, 2025

U.S. Eagle Federal Credit Union has been named to the Forbes list of Best-In-State Credit Unions 2025 for New Mexico. This prestigious recognition, presented in partnership with Statista, highlights the credit unions most valued by their members across the country.

The Forbes ranking is based on an independent survey of more than 26,000 U.S. consumers who rated their credit unions on trust, member service, financial advice, digital services, branch experience, and transparency.

This award reflects the trust our members place in us every day, and the dedication of our team to serve with heart, integrity, and purpose.

More Than a Credit Union – A Community Partner

At U.S. Eagle, we go beyond banking. We’re committed to improving lives and strengthening communities through:

  • No Overdraft Fees on select accounts*, helping members avoid unnecessary financial burdens.
  • Lower Fees and Competitive Rates that keep more money in our members’ pockets.
  • Financial Wellness Education through free workshops, online lessons, and personalized coaching.
  • Community Giving and Volunteerism, with both dollars and time donated to local nonprofits, schools, and causes that matter most to New Mexicans.

Whether it’s helping a member buy their first car, supporting a small business, or teaching financial literacy in schools, we’re here to make a difference.

Looking Ahead

This recognition from Forbes is a testament to our mission—but it’s only the beginning. As a trusted New Mexico credit union, we’re continuing to invest in smarter digital tools, expand access to financial education, and deepen our community partnerships.

Thank you to our members for your trust, and to our team for your passion and dedication. Together, we’re building a stronger, more inclusive financial future for all.
