Changes are in basis points (‱) on the same quarter a year earlier; a figure in parentheses is negative. A dash is a quarter with no figure. “Withheld · n of N” is a group with n filers of the N expected, too few to publish.

Where credit unions sit, Q2 2026

Each credit union’s own ratio: the box holds the middle half, the whiskers run from the 10th to the 90th percentile. The ratio of sums weights each credit union by its denominator, so those with larger denominators count for more.

  • 10th 48953.6%
  • 25th 66448.1%
  • Median 83753.0%
  • 75th 101579.6%
  • 90th 119315.8%
  • Ratio of sums 113595.7%

Definition

For a group
The ratio of sums: the members’ numerators summed, over their denominators summed. The median and percentiles beside it are of each member’s own ratio. A group with too few filers is withheld: no figure is published for it, only how many of its expected credit unions filed.
