MADISON, Wis. – Credit union professionals can gain a better understanding of the overall economy and how credit unions fit into the big picture through a recently revised book from CUNA.

“Economics for Credit Union Professionals” explains modern economics in layman’s terms, using credit union examples whenever possible. This second edition contains revised figures and tables to reflect current values and new questions in the review section at the end of each chapter. New government regulations for financial institutions were added, and the chapter on current economic problems was updated to account for the slower economic growth.

Additionally, this comprehensive text covers the basics of economics, money, U.S. financial institutions, the international monetary system, and more in an easy-to-understand format.
