Matys Chair Director of Education Credit Union continued from page 7 during that time--including a $7,052 profit last year--its accumulated deficit stood at $17,935 as of Sept. 30, 1991. OSDIC regulations for cred- it unions state that credit unions had to eliminate their deficits within five years. Amalgamating with Schreiber was intended as a means of getting rid of the deficit. "It would almost have dou- bled the credit union for us if the amalgamation had gone ahead," says Halcrow. "That would have enabled us to go the the Ministry of Financial Institutions and apply for things like changing our bylaws to allow us to loan out larger sums of money." She says that right now, their loan limit stands at $15,000. But by doubling their assets, they could apply for permission to increase that limit to $20,000-25,000.
