Carlsbad, New Mexico – March 2025: U-1st Community F.C.U., Carlsbad, NM proudly acknowledges that it has received a 5-Star Superior rating from BauerFinancial, the Nation’s Premier Credit Union and Bank Rating Firm. A 5-Star Superior rating indicates that U-1st Community F.C.U. is one of the strongest credit unions in the nation, excelling in areas of capital, loan quality, profitability and more. This marks the 71^st consecutive quarter that U-1st Community F.C.U. has earned a recommended rating (5-Stars or 4-Stars) from Bauer.

“A lot of things are changing”, reflects Karen L. Dorway, president of BauerFinancial. “Rules and regulations are being retooled, technology is advancing at lightning speed, and it’s easy to feel like you’re getting lost in the fray,” she continues. “People don’t want to feel like that where they bank, and they don’t have to. When they walk into their credit union, they want to feel confident that their deposits are safe, that all rules are being followed, and that their financial institution understands their specific needs. That’s why it’s so important to have 5-Star rated (Superior) institutions, like U-1st Community F.C.U., that are integral to our communities. As a member of a 5-Star credit union, we can be confident that they have our hard-earned deposits properly secured.”
