The Fellowship Credit Union was established in 1935 by 18 Boeing employees. Originally, BECU was only open to past and present employees of the Boeing Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, BECU itself, and the Museum of Flight. In 2002, membership was opened to those who live, work, or go to school in Washington state or certain Oregon or Idaho counties. [4] As of December 2021, BECU had over $30.2 billion in assets [5] and over 1.3 million members as of December 2021. [6] Beverly Anderson is the current President and CEO. [7]
On November 2, 2017, BECU changed its logo, replacing the 'cursive E' logo that had been used by the organization since the late 1980s, with a sans-serif logo. [8]
