The credit union quarterly statistics are statistics aggregated from the quarterly (CQ) returns submitted by authorised credit unions in the United Kingdom.
Published on
29 August 2025
Key points from the data include:
Credit Union adult membership grew 0.33% to 2.16 million in 2025 Q1.
The total value of assets held by UK Credit Unions rebounded slightly in 2025 Q1, increasing 0.14% to £4.89 billion after the first quarterly fall since records began in 2024 Q4.
Quarterly income and expenditure reported by UK Credit Unions in 2025 Q1 retracted from the record levels posted last quarter. Income fell by 12.98% to £99.62 million, and expenditure fell by 15.76% to £86.83 million quarter-on-quarter.
Interim profit increased by 12.24% to £12.77 million in 2025 Q1, driven by increases in England and Scotland, as falls in total income were offset by even greater falls in total expenditure in both regions.
