The credit union has received this award eight times since 2009, demonstrating its commitment to supporting the growth and expansion of small businesses in communities across the state.

“I appreciate Capital Credit Union’s willingness to make smaller SBA loan guaranties. These small loans help individual entrepreneurs start small businesses that begin to hire employees as they grow larger,” shared Al Haut, district director of SBA North Dakota’s District Office. “Ultimately, these small loans end up having a significant impact in driving our economy.”

Reflecting on the department’s success, Business Services Manager, Myron Aune, shared, “We’re fortunate. We’ve got a fantastic department with really, really good people.”

In addition to Aune, the department has employees located at its Main Office in Bismarck as well as its Fargo Branch, making it convenient to serve member businesses located at each end of the state. These employees include:

Chris Barry, business services officer, Main Office
Misty Benske, business services associate, Main Office
Kacie Iglehart, business services associate, Main Office
Austin Kahler, business credit analyst, Main Office
Brad Shetler, business services officer, Main Office
Caryn Warden, business services associate, Main Office
Ryan Welder, business credit analyst, Main Office
Paul Leier, business services officer, Fargo Branch

Department Philosophy

Inspired by the credit union’s mission, Aune shares that employees within the department focus on doing what’s right for members.

“We approach every interaction with a member as a relationship, not a transaction,” said Aune. “Members appreciate that we look into all options and collaborate with other departments to find the best product for them.”
