Letter from CEO and Board Chair
Dear Fellow Members,
For 89 years, our cooperative has been guided by an unwavering commitment to you, our members. We’re proud to support you at every stage of your financial journey, helping you build a strong foundation with the right knowledge, tools, and guidance to make confident decisions and achieve what matters most to you. Just as important, we remain dedicated to building strong, meaningful partnerships in the communities we serve. At Verve, we believe financial wellbeing is about more than transactions; it’s about helping our members truly thrive. That’s a legacy we are proud to carry forward today.
In 2025, Verve delivered an improved financial performance while maintaining a strong, stable balance sheet. We grew loans and member shares, built on our positive net income, and carefully managed expenses, all while remaining well capitalized and positioned for long-term success. These results reflect disciplined growth, prudent decision-making, and a clear focus on sustainability over short-term gains.
That strength translates directly into real value for our members. Because Verve is financially strong, we are able to reinvest in what matters most to you: Better rates, fewer fees, smarter digital tools, faster service, and products designed around real-life needs. From convenient ways to manage your money and pay for everyday necessities to meaningful savings, rewards, and financial guidance, our performance shows up in time saved, dollars earned, and peace of mind gained.
In 2026, we’re enhancing how members engage with Verve, both in branch and online. Through improvements to our website, account opening, digital banking, and service delivery, we’re making it easier and more intuitive to manage money, with clearer navigation and better access to the products, services, and support members need.
At Verve, success isn’t measured by numbers alone; it’s measured by how well we help our members thrive. As we move forward, we remain committed to using our strength to create even greater value for you and the communities we serve.
Sincerely,

Kevin J. Ralofsky
President and CEO
