Numerica Credit Union announced merger agreement with Oregon-based credit union

SPOKANE VALLEY, Wash. – Numerica Credit Union signed an agreement to merge with Oregon-based SELCO Community Credit Union. The deal is a “merger of equals,” SELCO President Bob Newcomb said in a video on his company’s website. Numerica’s website also said the agreement was to “merge as equals.” In videos posted in each company’s site, CEO’s of the two companies assured their credit union members there would be no immediate changes to users’ security, accounts, banking or services. “By bringing our two successful and respected organizations together, we will create a larger, stronger and more resilient credit union,” Numerica CEO Carla Cicero said. Cicero said she would be the CEO of the merged company, which would use the name “Numerica Credit Union.” Newcomb, SELCO’s current President and CEO, plans to retire after the merger, Numerica’s merger webpage says. “This is about building a stronger foundation for the future. One that allows us to create more opportunities for you, our employees, and our communities for years to come,” Numerica CEO Carla Cicero said. The merger still has to win regulatory approval and pass a member vote before being enacted. Numerica Credit Union supports over 175,000 members in the Inland Northwest, according
