Why DUCA?

We’re a vibrant, exciting credit union that lives its "profits with a purpose" philosophy in every financial transaction, product, interest rate, and community initiative we offer.

DUCA ( www.duca.com ) is the fastest organically growing large Credit Union in Canada distinguished for the following:

  • Positive, un-big bank like service experience delivered through Member-facing staff in branch, on the phone (Member-Connect) and via our Mobile mortgage specialists, Wealth Management advisors and Commercial and Business Banking Account Managers.
  • Competitive rates.
  • Personalized financial solutions, guidance, and service with the lowest possible fees for both Personal and Business Members.

  • A community philosophy of “profits with a purpose” culminating in the creation of the DUCA Impact Lab (www.ducaimpactlab.com), a charitable foundation committed to helping the credit challenged and underbanked. This led to DUCA's designation as a B-Corp certified organization, the first ever credit union to receive this global recognition.

A career with one of Canada’s fastest growing credit unions means you’ll find endless opportunities to make a difference with your unique abilities and perspectives. Our people live their purpose while helping others Do more, Be more and Achieve more with their money and their lives.
