Company History
In 1952, our credit union first began as the Anchorage Teachers Federal Credit Union. We were here for Alaskans when our state was still brand new, through economic ups and downs that have sharpened Alaskans' need for a financial institution that puts people first.
While we began as a teachers credit union that was confined to Anchorage, in 1982 we became Frontier Alaska State Credit Union and expanded to serve anyone who lives or works in Alaska. Over the following decades, we expanded to a 12 branch network that reaches as far north as Nome and south to Ketchikan! Following a merger with two other credit unions in the late 1990s, the new Credit Union 1 emerged as a not-for-profit leader in financial service for Alaskans.
