Copfcu

COPFCU (Cincinnati Ohio Police Federal Credit Union) is a not-for-profit, full-service financial institution serving Police Officers, Firefighters, Public School and Government employees. COPFCU was started on June 27, 1935 during the Great Depression to serve Cincinnati Police Officers and their families. At that time, law enforcement officers were required to purchase their own firearms. With starting salaries of only $125/month, a $25 firearm was a significant expense. As a result, a group of dedicated volunteers pooled resources together and started the Cincinnati Ohio Police Federal Credit Union. Guided by Irv Specht, the credit union's first loans were made with funds that were kept in an old cigar box. Since 1935, the credit union has continued to grow, now with three branches located in Queensgate (main office), Blue Ash and Colerain. Today, we serve more than public servants and their family members, but we have never lost sight of the significance of our law enforcement roots. In 2020, COPFCU was ranked as the 12th Healthiest Credit Union in the nation, out of 5,640 credit unions, by DepositAccounts.com. We strive every day to provide exceptional value and service to our public servants, who work so hard to make our community a great place to live, work, and raise a family.
