Gulf Winds Credit Union to buy second bank in a month

Original: Florida credit union to buy 2nd bank in a month Gulf Winds Credit Union agreed to buy Madison County Community Bank in A

Gulf Winds Credit Union, based in Florida, has agreed to acquire Peoples Exchange Bank in Alabama, its second bank purchase in a month after agreeing to buy Madison County Community Bank in August. The credit union plans a rebrand next year, and the rapid back-to-back deals are drawing attention in banking circles as credit unions increasingly acquire traditional banks.

Why now: A credit union buying two banks in quick succession is unusual and reflects the broader trend of credit union-bank acquisitions reshaping the industry
