“We are extremely pleased to open our new Downtown Cincinnati branch, and we welcome Cincinnatians and new friends from all over the Midwest,” Mr. Christenson said.

“Credit unions have become invaluable partners for families nationwide with their unique service and product offerings. At Connexus, we really are all about choosing, and owning, your best financial partner,” added Mr. McKissick.
