Mission & Vision

FESALOS VISION AND MISSION STATEMENTS

​

Savings and Loan Societies are also known as Credit Union in some other countries and are formed by groups of people, such as public servants, factory workers or village people who save their money together in a common fund. From this fund loans are made to members at reasonable rates on interest for a wide range of provident and productive purposes. Only members can borrow from a Society. Each society and its funds are actually controlled by its members who elect office bearers to run the Society.

The Federation provides certain services and assistance to its affiliated Societies. The Federation also promotes new Savings and Loan Societies. Membership of the Federation is voluntary and the Federation is guided by Directors elected from societies throughout Papua New Guinea.
