Credit Union

Prospera

Prospera Credit Union is a credit union located in British Columbia. It was founded in 1943. It primarily serves Southwest mainland regions of British Columbia.

Prospera Credit Union was a British Columbia based credit union with roots reaching back to 1943, when Edelweiss Credit Union was founded in Vancouver to serve the German Canadian community. Another predecessor, Fraser Valley Credit Union, was established in Abbotsford in 1949. The two merged in 2002 to form Prospera.

Prospera expanded in 2020 through its merger with Westminster Savings Credit Union, which was described at the time as the largest merger in Canadian credit union history. It served members across the Lower Mainland, Fraser Valley, and Okanagan with personal and business banking, lending, mortgages, investments, and financial advice.

In May 2026, Prospera merged with Coast Capital Savings and Sunshine Coast Credit Union to form Coast Capital Savings Federal Credit Union. Prospera continues as a regional brand within the combined federal credit union.
