Members of Land of Enchantment Federal Credit Union will experience no interruption in credit union service, and their accounts remain federally insured up to at least $250,000 by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF). Guadalupe Credit Union has $102 million in assets and serves approximately 10,500 members.

NCUA assumed control of operations at Land of Enchantment Federal Credit Union with a goal of continuing credit union service to the members at a safe, sound credit union.
