We talk about the steps taken to keep employees and members safe, the variety of banking options beyond in-branch banking, necessary adjustments to service hours and the powerful network providers and regulators behind Moya Financial’s systems.  Finally, we talk about the role of a strong community in getting through this most challenging of times.

In this episode, we connect with Martha Durdin, the President and CEO at Canadian Credit Union Association (CCUA). Moya Financial is an active member of the CCUA, and we thought we’d connect with Martha to talk about the rich history of credit unions in Canada, the resilience and durability of these unique financial institutions in Ontario, and talk about the highlights of the Get Your Share campaign, which encourages new members to join with a two hundred dollar sign-up bonus or if you are an existing member of Moya to receive a fifty dollar bonus just for referring a new member.

Greetings and welcome to “Moya Financial Matters” brought to you by Moya Financial Credit Union in Toronto, Canada. This podcast is not intended to provide financial or financial planning advice, please visit us in person at our branch and we’d be more than happy to meet and chat in person!

In this episode we connect with two key people behind the scenes at Moya Financial, from the community based board of directors Chair and Vice-Chair, Val Končan & Barbara Udovic. Together we talk about their personal and professional journeys and the contributions they make both to the Slovenian community at large and here at Moya as Board of Director members.

For both existing members of Moya Financial and for those considering banking with us, it is important to understand how the Board of Directors not only works to oversee the business, but also plays an important role in keeping Moya connected to the community, reflecting the members broader community interests.

In this episode we connect with David Wreglesworth, Moya Financial’s branch manager at main branch located at Browns Line.  But more than a branch manager, at Moya David is the focal point and key contact between our members, our investment team and part of the leadership group.  For members, this means a direct connection between the front lines at the branch and head office, ensuring that the membership experience, needs and objectives are in sync.

In this episode we’re talking about home mortgages, specifically but not exclusively first time home mortgages. Home ownership will be the single largest purchase that most people will make in their lifetime and the majority of us will need to get a mortgage. So, it’s wise to shop carefully.

To get a first hand explanation of how Moya approaches lending overall and 1st time home mortgages specifically, we sat down with Paula-Jean Lyn, Director of Credit with Moya Financial in her office in Toronto.  With three decades of experience helping people realize their dreams and move into their first home, Paula-Jean talks about what makes our approach different, and provides great tips for first time home buyers.
