Corporate credit unions are united on a cooperative basis in the Central Credit Union (US Central Credit Union). Representative organization, leading the coordination work in the field of development of both global and national credit union movement is the World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU) established in 1971 (headquartered in Madison, USA). Credit unions also differ from the traditional consumer cooperatives. Is necessary that all shareholders of the credit union were members of a single community, would know each other well enough to enjoy mutual trust. Credit unions perform the function of social protection in a vital for people sphere of financial services. They care about improving the financial literacy of the population, are working on the formation of their members and their employees. Income derived from the provision of services to its members, does not become the profit of credit union and is distributed among its members in proportion to their savings. The supreme body of the World Council of Credit Unions is the Assembly, which elects the president and the board of directors of WOCCU.
