Wisconsin’s state-chartered credit unions reported solid financial performance through the first quarter of 2026.
According to data released by the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions,97 state-chartered credit unions, two federal credit unions and a corporate credit union increased assets to $72.4 billion. This is an increase of $2 billion since year-end 2025.
Shares and deposits rose $1.9 billion, and net income was over $193.8 million, representing a 1.09% return on average assets compared to 1.01% in 2025.
“Through the first quarter, Wisconsin’s state-chartered credit unions continue to exhibit sound financial performance,” DFI Office of Credit Union’s Deputy Director Troy Kaja said in a statement. “Our state’s credit unions have experienced strong earnings and even stronger asset growth during the first quarter of 2026, which led to a slight decrease in the capital ratio.”
