What is a Share Secured loan?

A Share Secured Loan uses your savings account ("shares") as collateral. With a share secured loan, you first deposit money into a savings or share account. CVCU then places a hold on part or all of those funds to use as collateral for the loan. You are allowed to borrow against the amount being held and repay the loan through monthly installments. Once the loan is fully repaid, the hold on your savings is removed and your funds become fully available to you again.

Certificate Secured Loan rates

What is a Certificate Secured Loan?

A Certificate Secured Loan is a loan that uses a savings certificate — usually a certificate of deposit (CD) as collateral. With a certificate secured loan, you either open or already have a certificate account, such as a CD. CVCU places a hold on that certificate and uses it as security for the loan. You then make regular monthly loan payments until the balance is fully paid off. Once the loan is repaid, the hold on the certificate is removed and you regain full access to it.
