Why is WeStreet recommending a merger with CommunityAmerica?
Our decision to recommend a merger with CommunityAmerica is centered on our long-term strength, future opportunities, and commitment to our members and employees.
Partnering with CommunityAmerica strengthens our financial position, expands our resources and capabilities, and brings together two organizations with similar values, cultures, and a shared people-first mindset.
CommunityAmerica’s strong commitment to exceptional member service and helping members achieve financial peace of mind is an important reason we believe they’re the right partner for WeStreet. By combining our strengths and resources, we can provide greater stability, expand opportunities, and continue providing meaningful support to our members and employees for years to come.
How will I benefit from the merger?
WeStreet members will benefit from enhanced value-added products, services, technologies, and expanded access for more convenient ways to bank.
CommunityAmerica’s focus is, and always will be, on the number of people they can help. One example of this is their annual Profit Payout program, which rewards members who use CommunityAmerica for most of their banking needs. Since 2012, they have returned more than $110 million to members through this program. If the merger proceeds, our members would be eligible to benefit from this program, as well.
What information will I receive?
All primary account holders will receive a letter and notice in the mail to the account address. This letter includes the benefits of the merger, your voting ballot, and more. This webpage will be regularly updated with additional information as available.
Will any branches close?
No current WeStreet branch locations will close as a result of the merger, and branch staff will continue to serve our members just as they do today.
What does the member vote entail?
Members who choose to vote will have 45 days to cast their vote by mail. After the voting period closes, a Special Member Meeting will be held on Friday, November 20 to count and finalize the vote.
