Independence Day Legal Holiday Learning: State of the (Credit) Union

  • Minneapolis Community Kollel 2930 Inglewood Avenue South Minneapolis, MN, 55416 United States (map)

Interest Issues

As interest rates rise, you may notice that loans with lower rates may be available from a credit union. Since credit unions are non-profit entities composed of a partnership of its members, they are often able to offer lower rates. Sounds good, right?

But wait- a partnership? What if there are other Jewish members of this credit union? Does that mortgage or car loan now run into the prohibition of borrowing with interest from a fellow Jew?

Join us this Independence Day as we explore this important topic.
