As we reflect on another remarkable year, Catalyst Asset Management extends its heartfelt gratitude to our member credit unions. Your partnership, trust and engagement continue to fuel our growth and strengthen the cooperative foundation we are proud to stand on.

First and foremost, thank you to every Catalyst member credit union and to the dedicated teams who partner with us every day. Our single, unwavering purpose is to accelerate and enable your success. When we provide exceptional value to our credit unions, you are empowered to deliver exceptional value to your members and communities.

Looking back at 2025, we have navigated dynamic markets, seized new opportunities and advanced the financial well-being of our industry together. Throughout the year, Catalyst Asset Management has continued to invest in new capabilities, resources and expertise to expand the value we bring to credit unions nationwide.

Catalyst Asset Management

Catalyst Asset Management is one of the oldest Registered Investment Advisors serving credit unions since 1987. Our dedicated team provides Asset Liability Management, Liquidity and Capital Stress Testing, Subordinated Debt, Derivative Hedging and our flagship Balance Sheet and Investment Consultation to credit unions across the country.

Throughout 2025, the team implemented several strategic enhancements including transitioning to a cloud based Empyrean model, integrating new data sources and expanding our team with seasoned senior consultants. These investments strengthen our ability to deliver comprehensive balance sheet and portfolio management, robust reporting tools and impactful consultation and support.

Catalyst Brokerage Services

The Catalyst Brokerage team prides itself on providing credit unions with access to a wide array of investment products and market intelligence. Whether you are looking for government securities, agency bonds or other fixed-income investments, our brokerage professionals deliver personalized solutions that align with your institution’s goals and regulatory requirements.

In 2025, the team released our online bond trading platform. This functionality rounds out Catalyst’s robust CD and loan participation online resources. These resources enable credit unions to make informed decisions, benefit from timely execution and seize opportunities as they arise.

Loan Participation Exchange

Catalyst has enabled over $4-billion in loan participations through our robust online portal.  We are proud to facilitate these vital services and continue to expand the level of consultation we provide to enable credit unions to optimize and grow their loan portfolios, diversify risk and achieve greater financial resilience.

Looking Forward

As we reflect on the past year, we are immensely proud of what we have accomplished together. The Catalyst Financial Services team is honored to serve as your partner and we look ahead to 2026 with optimism, ready to support your growth, deepen collaboration and further strengthen the financial fabric of our credit union community.
