​Navy Federal is today announcing a strategic partnership with the Curql Collective, a collaboration of over 130 credit unions jointly investing in fintech for the benefit of credit unions and their members. The partnership reaffirms Navy Federal’s commitment to supporting the future of the credit union movement.

“Fintech partnerships are essential for providing credit union members with access to innovative experiences and products, which allow them to better manage their finances,” said Aaron Aggerwal, chief lending officer at Navy Federal.

Navy Federal’s investment aligns with a growing collective of credit unions already participating in the Curql Collective.

“Credit unions thrive when we work together to drive innovation,” said Nick Evens, president and CEO of the Curql Collective. “Curql is proud to welcome Navy Federal as part of the 130+ credit unions investing together to bring forward fintech solutions that strengthen the credit union movement and enhance member experience.”

By investing in Curql Fund II, Navy Federal joins a credit union-led initiative focused on delivering fintech solutions that enhance lending automation, fraud prevention, cybersecurity, and member experience.

“Providing the best possible service to our members is always our focus at Navy Federal, and we also believe strongly in the value all credit unions bring to their hundreds of millions of members across the world,” added Navy Federal president and CEO Dietrich Kuhlmann. “We’re proud to join the Curql Collective to help advance the goal of removing barriers for credit unions of all sizes and facilitating the implementation of fintech across the industry.”
