For the Second Time, AMOCO FCU Named to Newsweek’s America’s Best Regional Banks & Credit Unions 2026

This award recognizes AMOCO Federal Credit Union’s impact and commitment to serving the financial needs of its members by offering a range of affordable products and services while delivering personalized, member-focused service.

Texas City, Texas, April 7, 2026 – AMOCO Federal Credit Union (AMOCO FCU) is proud to announce that it has been recognized as one of Newsweek’s America’s Best Regional Banks & Credit Unions 2026, in partnership with Plant-A Insights Group. Newsweek and Plant-A Insights Group honored companies committed to strengthening local economies by supporting small businesses, financing community projects, and providing reliable access to everyday financial services.

This recognition follows an extensive analysis of more than 8,800 banks and credit unions, incorporating insights from over 66,000 customer surveys, 2.3 million social media reviews, and more than 80 million app store reviews from Apple and Google Play.

“Being recognized by Newsweek for the second time as one of America’s Best Regional Credit Unions is both an honor and a powerful affirmation of our purpose,” said Shawn Bailey, CEO of AMOCO FCU. “This distinction reflects the trust our members place in us and the dedication of our team to consistently deliver personalized service, strong financial solutions, and a steadfast commitment to the communities we serve.”

Newsweek and market data research firm Plant-A Insights Group focused specifically on regional banks and credit unions, excluding nationwide banks from consideration. The evaluation criteria examined multiple factors, including profitability, financial relevance, exposure to financial risk, and the overall health and stability of each financial institution.

“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,” said Jennifer H. Cunningham, Editor-in-Chief, Newsweek. “We hope this list helps you find the most trusted financial institutions in your area - whether you're planning your next business venture or taking your next step toward financial security.”
