Our Beginnings

Credit Union Trust, founded by seven Michigan credit unions, began serving clients in 2019 under the leadership of Bob Sajdak. A nationally respected leader in the trust industry, Sajdak came out of retirement to guide the organization through its successful launch. Following his retirement in 2021, Jordan Summers was appointed President and CEO.

In 2024, CU Trust celebrated its fifth anniversary and moved from shared office space in Farmington Hills to its own office in Troy, to accommodate a growing team (while also retaining employees located throughout Michigan). The team is available for both virtual and in-person meetings by appointment.
