Troy Stang serves as the President and CEO of the GoWest Credit Union Association the trade association representing more than 300 not-for-profit, member-owned credit unions in Arizona, Colorado Idaho, Oregon, Washington and Wyoming. More than 16.5 million consumers are members of those credit unions.

Under Stang’s leadership, the Association is focused on nurturing an innovative public policy environment to ensure cooperative financial services are a relevant choice in the marketplace. In addition to legislative and regulatory advocacy, the Association provides public relations, compliance, and professional development to participating credit unions.

Bush’s administration as senior staff to the US Treasury Secretary. He has extensive hands-on financial institution experience in large and complex credit unions across the nation.
