When members and potential members shop for services or a new financial institution, of course you would like your credit union to be the low-fee choice. However, you also have a long list of business considerations when deciding the types and amounts of fees to charge your members such as covering costs, encouraging members to use money-saving services, and providing better service than your competitors.
