This week, America’s Credit Unions announced that Scott Simpson has been selected to be America’s Credit Unions’ next leader, starting Nov. 3. Simpson currently serves as president/CEO of the California Credit Union League and Nevada's Credit Unions and CEO of Utah's Credit Unions.

Simpson will succeed current America’s Credit Unions President/CEO Jim Nussle, who announced his retirement earlier this year.

“I couldn’t be more pleased that a League President (LP) has been chosen to lead America’s Credit Unions,” said Caroline Willard, president/CEO of Cornerstone League. “As we saw in the recent ‘Don’t Tax My Credit Union’ campaign, our movement is at its strongest when national and state-level advocacy efforts are tightly integrated—a dynamic Scott fully understands and values.”

Willard added that as a former AACUL chair, Simpson has firsthand experience in how the league system can mobilize effectively.

“Scott is a disciplined, thoughtful, and seasoned leader, and I’m confident he will guide America’s Credit Unions to new heights,” said Willard.
