LIMA, OH—S&P Global Market Intelligence, formerly S&P Capital IQ and SNL Financial, recently released its ranking of 2025’s 100 best-performing credit unions. Superior Credit Union, based in Lima, Ohio, was named the #63 Best-Performing Credit Union in the U.S. The credit union was also ranked second in the state of Ohio and first in western Ohio, where it currently serves its members and communities.
S&P Global Market Intelligence ranked the nation’s credit unions using six weighted financial metrics: member change, shares and deposits per member, net worth as a percentage of total assets, return on average assets, net charge-off s as a percentage of average loans, and delinquent loans as a percentage of total loans. To be eligible for the ranking, a credit union had to report at least $100 million in total assets and a net worth ratio of at least 7.0% as of December 31, 2025. Based on these criteria, 1,797 credit unions qualified for the ranking.
“Superior is proud to be ranked as a Top Performing Credit Union,” said Phil Buell, President and CEO of Superior Credit Union. “We feel that it represents our commitment to the cooperative principles of our organization. We strive to make sound financial decisions that will benefit our members and the communities that we serve.”
“Our continued growth and success will make it possible for Superior to provide the financial products and services that our members want and deserve. We are thrilled to be ranked #1 in our service area and will continue to serve our communities with that mentality.”

Since visiting Superior Credit Union both Laurie and I have become members and moved money into investments through Superior. We have been VERY happy with the service provided by Tim Niebel and others that we have come in contact with. The customer service and value of being appreciated as a member by far surpasses any bank we have been in contact with or used. Prior to playing the Piggy Bank promotion, I had barely heard of Superior and after we talked to many of our friends who are members and got excellent reviews.Bill & Laurie
Love the people working at my branch. They helped me not only set up a checking and savings account but also a 12 month CD. Thank you guys for the help.Noel N.
John was very very helpful, gave me insight on savings accounts and helped me get what I needed quickly!Dylan W.
Buying my first home seemed scary and daunting, but Alisha and the whole team at Superior made it smooth and walked me through every step! They answered every one of my questions and never left me in the dark. I’m very grateful for their hard work!Cassidy and Nathan
Kelly Dattilo was absolutely amazing to work with. She went above and beyond trying to find what would work best for me. She was very open and honest, which as a first-time buyer made everything easier. You can tell she genuinely cares about those she is working with.Renae M.
A year ago, we refinanced our home with Superior Credit Union and Kelly Dattilo. She was so incredibly helpful that when we recently bought a new home in Tucson, AZ, we called her immediately to ask for her help again! Kelly is very knowledgeable and professional and we highly recommend her for any kind of mortgage assistance. She’s readily available and very patient when I have questions and makes sure that I understand the answers which I really appreciate. Again, we highly recommend her – she’s the best!!Cindy & Rick
We could not be happier with our experience with Superior! Working with Kelly was a dream. Not only was she informative, she added a true personal touch to the entire process. Would absolutely recommend working with Superior CU for your mortgage needs!Connor & Katie
As a first-time homebuyer, I had the best experience with Kelly Dattilo at Superior. Her patience and kindness to explain all of the process and the different options made the entire experience seamless and exciting! The SuperiorFirst grant helped me so much throughout my process of homebuying and financing! I can’t thank Kelly enough for helping me secure my first home with the advantage of using the first-time homebuyers grant!Lindsey C.
Melissa was amazing! She made the home buying process go smoothly and if we needed anything, she was right on top of it. She was very nice and always willing to explain something to us! Would use her as a loan originator again!Kyrra & Morgan
Buying a house is an overall stressful situation. You feel like you’re waiting for something to go wrong. Melissa pretty much took us under her wing and made sure everything was smooth going and taken care of! I not only got to buy our home, but I made a new best friend! Melissa not only knows what she is doing but she makes you feel like you know what you’re doing! She’s phenomenal at what she does!Chuck & Brittany
We purchased a home and received $2,000 towards our closing through SuperiorFirst. We went through Katie at the Elida branch, and she was a big help in getting that and answering all the questions we had along the way. As first-time homebuyers, Superior was a big help throughout the process!
GOLD! GOLD! GOLD! SUPERIOR WINS GOLD! What an absolute pleasure and experience opening accounts with Justin! Every I dotted and T crossed and I'm on my way to a new banking relationship after 45 years after moving to the area and my TWO financial mainstays do not have a presence within 50 miles and in another state. JUSTIN MADE IT SEAMLESS AND EFFICIENTLY ANSWERED EVERY QUESTION, CALMED EVERY CONCERN. Thank you so very much! SUPERIOR!Dawn M.
I received calls from someone claiming to be from PayPal. So I called the Credit Union, and as a result, they put me in touch with someone in fraud, and I talked to Jessica! Jessica makes me feel like she is the person I should call! I felt really safe. Thank God for Superior. You’re [Jessica] like a guardian angel!Mary Franklin
Julie and Kelly were both fantastic, they met all our needs and very professional. Even when we hit small roadblocks they worked through it, and always found solutions. Great company to work with, they will help save you tons of money.Shawn & Natalie
