Vantage West Recognized by Newsweek as Best Regional Credit Union for Third Consecutive Year

Posted by on December 16, 2025

Vantage West Credit Union has been recognized by Newsweek as one of America’s Best Regional Credit Unions for third consecutive year because its approach to modern banking aims to meet members where they are and provide holistic financial wellness support.

“We’re honored to be recognized by Newsweek,” said Sandra Sagehorn-Elliott, CEO at Ariz.-based Vantage West. “This award reflects our ongoing commitment to our members and the communities we serve. We owe this recognition to the incredible teamwork and member-centric approach that defines our team.”

“More than financial service providers, credit unions are community partners, showing up in neighborhoods, participating in local initiatives, and helping strengthen the connections that bind their members together,” added Jennifer H. Cunningham, Editor-in-Chief at Newsweek.

Newsweek and Plant-A Insights Group recognized companies that are committed to powering local economies by supporting small businesses, financing community projects, and providing reliable access to everyday banking services.
