Annual Report 2012
Columbia Credit Union Making life better since 1952
CEO & Chair Report In 2012, Columbia Credit Union celebrated its 60th Anniversary of service and making life better throughout Southwest Washington. With effects of the recession easing and economic conditions improving, credit unions across the nation experienced growth in 2012. Columbia was no exception. Throughout the year, the credit union s notable gains facilitated product innovation, community service projects and a strengthening of our overall financial position. In August, Columbia s membership grew to 75,000 members, distinguishing us as the financial institution of choice for nearly one in three Clark County families. If you referred new members to us in 2012, thank you for sharing the value in joining a nonprofit financial cooperative. Columbia maintained solid financial performance throughout the year. Total assets grew to $891 million, a nine percent increase over 2011. Our net worth remained above 10 percent, easily surpassing the level considered well capitalized by our regulators. Members continued to put their trust in Columbia, growing deposits eight percent over the previous year to $782 million, making your credit union Clark County s largest local deposit holder. Our deposit strength allowed us to serve families and businesses with affordable borrowing solutions, as evidenced by a five percent loan growth over 2011. Members took advantage of terrific auto loan values and historically low mortgage rates, enabling us to continue as Clark County s #1 auto lender and top local mortgage lender. Hundreds of members took advantage of the super low rates and shortened terms in our new RetireIt! Mortgage SM, saving thousands on their path to a mortgagefree retirement. Our business lending team partnered with local businesses to direct over $38 million into our local economy. Businesses play a crucial role in a healthy economy, and we re pleased to contribute to the success of our community. Columbia s dedication to making life better in our community remained strong in 2012. Collectively, we logged nearly 1,200 hours of management volunteer service and worked with area nonprofits to help raise over $2.7 million. See a copy of Columbia s 2012 Community Report for more information.

Supervisory Committee Report The Supervisory Committee (Committee) of Columbia Community Credit Union (Columbia or Credit Union) is comprised of five members elected by the membership to three-year terms. The Committee conducted regular meetings throughout 2012. As a state-chartered credit union, Columbia is bound by Chapter 31.12 of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW). The Committee duties are enumerated in this Chapter. In accordance with RCW 31.12.335, the Supervisory Committee must: a. Meet at least quarterly; b. Keep fully informed as to the financial condition of the Credit Union and the decisions of the Credit Union s Board; c. Perform or arrange for a complete annual audit of the Credit Union and a verification of its members accounts; and d. Report its findings and recommendations to the Board and make an annual report to members at each annual membership meeting. In addition, the Committee must comply with the applicable sections of Part 715 of National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) rules. The audit firm of Moss Adams, LLP was retained to perform the annual audit of Columbia s financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012. The audit determined that Columbia s financial statements fairly present the financial condition of the Credit Union. In addition to carrying out its statutory duties noted above, the Committee oversees the Internal Audit Department in its broader audit function. The Department, in some cases through its audit cosourcing partners, provides an additional layer of review through the performance of internal audits
and reviews. Qualified Supervisory Committee Report auditing and consulting firms are utilized for their expertise to review areas such as information technology security, business lending, home lending, and compliance, to ensure a thorough, qualified audit or review and an objective internal audit process. As a result of these various audits and reviews, it is the opinion of the Supervisory Committee that the financial condition of Columbia is strong. The Committee believes that the internal controls, policies, and operations of the Credit Union are in compliance with all governmental regulations. The support and cooperation from management and staff has assisted the Committee in the performance of its duties and is greatly appreciated.
