About Us

Tim O’Hara, Publisher / President

Following a successful 10-year span working in New York City-based trade publishing for a variety of magazines involved in the commercial insurance, chemical processing and automotive sectors, Tim moved to Florida to help in the launch of Credit Union Times in 1990.

As cofounder / publisher of The Credit Union Journal, Tim once again created a successful publication. He eventually engineered the company’s sale to Faulkner & Gray, a division of The Thompson Corporation of Toronto.

After meeting with many credit union “C Suite” executives, Tim knew that the time was right for the next stage in credit union publishing: a CU-centric monthly business magazine that provides valuable business intelligence to CU Management. On July 1st, 2006 Tim launched Credit Union BUSINESS.
