History

U.S. Eagle Federal Credit Union was founded in 1935 under the name Albuquerque U.S. Employees Federal Credit Union.[1] Initially, Albuquerque U.S. Employees Federal Credit Union served federal employees in New Mexico.[1] In 1990, their name was changed to U.S. New Mexico Federal Credit Union to reflect an expanded membership base.[6]

In March 2015, U.S. New Mexico Federal Credit Union announced their name would be changing to U.S. Eagle Federal Credit Union.[7] Earlier that year, U.S. Eagle merged with New Mexico Correctional Employees Federal Credit Union.[8] In December 2015, U.S. Eagle acquired the signage rights for Albuquerque Plaza.[9]
