SHREWSBURY – Central One Federal Credit Union former President and CEO David L’Ecuyer has been inducted into the Cooperative Credit Union Association’s (CCUA) Hall of Fame.
The hall of fame honors people who have made significant contributions to the credit union movement. The honor was unveiled during CCUA’s annual Apex Conference in October.
“David L’Ecuyer’s impact on Central One and the credit union industry at large was nothing short of transformative,” said President and CEO Devon Lyon in a press release. “His vision, dedication and leadership established a foundation of growth and community commitment that continues to drive our success today.”
L’Ecuyer led Central One from 1994 until his retirement in 2022. He is only the second CEO in Central One’s 70-year history and orchestrated the transition from a small occupational-based credit union for New England Electric System employees to one of the largest federal credit unions in Central Massachusetts.
Central One achieved remarkable growth under his leadership and established a solid commitment to member satisfaction, setting new standards for excellence in the industry.
He transformed the organization into a “beacon of innovation and community service,” the credit union wrote in the press release. Central One’s assets grew to $735 million and membership more than doubled to over 35,000 members.
“We are honored to see David’s contributions recognized by CCUA Hall of Fame – it’s a well-deserved acknowledgement of his lasting legacy,” said Lyon.
