ONTARIO, Calif. -- United Nations Federal Credit Union, (UNFCU), with a worldwide membership consisting of staff from the UN and its agencies, UN retirees and their families, has joined the Co-Op Network, which offers access to more than 17,000 surcharge-free ATMs across the United States and Canada as well as linking to 800,000 ATMs globally.

Noting that Navy Federal Credit Union, the largest credit union in the world, became a Co-Op Network member in February, Robert Rose, the Co-Op Network's chief executive, said in a news release, "Now with UNFCU coming on board, it establishes an interesting trend whereby credit unions with members dotting the globe are looking to Co-Op Network to provide their ATM connection."
