Addition Financial Credit Union and Envision Credit Union announced their plans to merge two award-winning institutions and expand service to members from Central Florida, North Florida, and South Georgia.
Under the terms of the agreement, which is subject to approval from the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) and a membership vote, the combined credit union will continue to operate as Addition Financial Credit Union under the leadership of current President and CEO, Kevin Miller. Once the merger is complete, the credit union will hold nearly $4 billion in assets and serve more than 248,000 members across 38 branches in two states.
Founded in 1937 and 1954 respectively, Addition Financial, based in Lake Mary, Florida and Envision, based in Tallahassee, share similar histories, philosophies, and values. Both credit unions were created by small groups of educators who wanted better financial options than what banks were providing. In the intervening decades, the organizations have opened and grown membership in their broader communities.
This strategic alliance will allow the unified credit union to expand its services and product offerings to members, as well as optimize operational efficiencies, while continuing to provide the unparalleled level of member service both organizations are known for.
“This merger will significantly increase the ability of Addition Financial to serve more members, and support both communities,” said Kevin Miller, President and CEO of Addition Financial Credit Union. “By joining forces with Envision Credit Union and the people-first culture they have cultivated for 70 years, we can provide even greater value to our collective members and team members and continue our shared mission of supporting our communities.”
Darryl Worrell, President and CEO of Envision Credit Union added, “In bringing our teams together, we will draw the best from both credit unions to build on our legacies of service and honor the strong commitments to our communities. This merger enables us to provide more access to services, broaden offerings of innovative products, and deliver personalized support to every member and future member.”
Both boards of directors and leadership teams unanimously support the merger, which the credit unions anticipate will be finalized before the end of 2025, with system integrations extending into 2026. There will be no immediate changes as the merger process is ongoing. While Addition Financial and Envision will work in concert, the credit unions will remain two separate entities until the membership vote and system and process integration are complete.
