SAN DIEGO, CA – Mission Fed Credit Union, the largest member-owned, not-for-profit, fullservice financial institution exclusively serving San Diego County, was recognized by DepositAccounts.com of Lending Tree in the 2021 Top 200 Healthiest Credit Unions in America two years in a row.

DepositAccounts.com evaluates the financial health of over 10,000 federally-insured banks and credit unions in the United States once per quarter.

Mission Fed received an A+ rating – the highest health grade given out – and ranked #74 overall out of 2,943 National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) insured credit unions.
