History
DCU was chartered in 1979 for employees of Digital Equipment Corporation following complaints to CEO Ken Olsen that employees had been having difficulty securing mortgages.[5]
It was founded as a commercial banking institution to serve both individual consumers and businesses. Over the years, it has expanded its offerings to include a wide range of financial services, including checking and savings accounts, credit cards, student and personal loans, mortgages, vehicle financing, and commercial lending.[6]
In 2025, DCU began offering a credit-builder loan, allowing members to improve their credit while building savings.[7]
