04/08/2026

All Together Money Chief Executive, Matt Bland, has joined CU Broadcast for a special interview recorded at the World Credit Union Conference in Sydney, Australia, highlighting the importance of collaboration in supporting the future growth of the credit union movement.

Recorded during the conference earlier this month, the interview explores the key themes from Matt’s conference presentation, “Stronger Together: Collaboration as a Growth Strategy,” and reflects on the opportunities and challenges facing credit unions in Britain and around the world.

During the discussion, Matt shares his thoughts on the growing recognition of credit unions, the importance of working collectively to strengthen the movement, and how collaboration between credit unions, partners and policymakers can help unlock future growth. He also discusses the opportunities presented by the UK’s changing policy landscape and the role that Credit Union Service Organisations (CUSOs) can play in helping credit unions innovate and deliver greater value for members.

The interview forms part of CU Broadcast’s extensive coverage from the World Credit Union Conference, which brought together credit union leaders from across the globe to exchange ideas, share best practice and explore the future of cooperative finance.

Commenting on the interview, Matt Bland said: “The World Credit Union Conference is always an excellent opportunity to learn from colleagues across the global movement and to share the work taking place here in Britain. Collaboration has never been more important as we look to grow the reach and impact of credit unions, and it was a pleasure to discuss these themes with CU Broadcast.”

All Together Money extends its thanks to the CU Broadcast team for the opportunity to take part in the interview and for their continued coverage of the global credit union movement.
