History

The earliest predecessor of Lake Trust Credit Union was Detroit Edison Credit Union, which was chartered in 1944. Lake Trust uses 1944 as their charter date. In November 2007, Detroit Edison completed the purchase and assumption of Huron River Area Credit Union. On April 1, 2010, Detroit Edison merged with NuUnion Credit Union to establish Lake Trust Credit Union. NuUnion had been a 2004 merger of State Employees Credit Union and Ottawa County School Employees Credit Union. William Thiess became the President of Lake Trust while Stephan Winningerwill became CEO. Thiess and Winningerwill had been President and CEO of Detroit Edison and NuUnion, respectively. A year after the merger, Winninger and Thiess retired from the company. David Snodgrass, a former executive at Affinity Federal Credit Union in New Jersey, was named President and CEO of Lake Trust.

Lake Trust Credit Union was the first credit union in America to enable MasterCard's MasterPass digital wallet. The organization had piloted MasterPass since February 2013 in association with PSCU.

On March 20, 2013, Lake Trust Credit Union announced that they would be building a new $30 million headquarters in Brighton, Michigan. The site includes a new 100,000 square foot building designed to more efficiently and effectively join their employees who were split between corporate offices located in Lansing, Michigan, Plymouth, Michigan and Brighton. President and CEO David Snodgrass said the credit union expects to save around $7 million in operating costs during the first 20 years of the building. In September 2015, the headquarters was officially moved to Brighton. The building was designed to be innovative and collaborative, where no one has their own office and people are encouraged to work together in open spaces. Snodgrass said, "You wouldn't think it was a financial institution; you would think it was Google or Facebook or some tech company." The building includes a restaurant and a fitness center.

In September 2015, Lake Trust was recognized by Credit Union Journal as one of "The Best Credit Unions to Work For", a list of 45 credit unions from across the United States. As of September 2015, Lake Trust has twenty-one branches, a membership of more than 167,000, and assets of over $1.6 billion. It ranks in the top 1% of credit unions nationwide and it is the fourth largest credit union in Michigan in terms of asset size.
