J. Kevin Ryan, CEO of Indianapolis-based Financial Center First Credit Union, is set to retire after 40 years in the industry, the credit union announced Tuesday.
Ryan joined Financial Center in 2009 as president and CEO. Financial Center said he helped grow the credit union to more than 80,000 members and $810 million in assets.
Financial Center, founded in 1954, is the fifth-largest credit union in the Indianapolis-area, according to IBJ research.
“I’ve been blessed to work in an industry where the motto of ‘People Helping People’ is at its very foundation, and leading the efforts of Financial Center has been the highlight of my career,” Ryan said in a written statement.
Ryan was recently honored with the Sagamore of the Wabash award for his service to the state.
“Kevin lives and breathes the people helping people philosophy. Thanks to his remarkable leadership, the credit union has had notable periods of growth and community involvement,” said Cam Minges, Financial Center president, in written remarks. “He has worked so hard all of his life, and now it’s time for him to relax and enjoy time with his family. His legacy will be honored as we continue to help our members and communities improve their financial lives.”
Ryan is chairman of the Indiana Military Veterans Hall of Fame, as well as president of the Lawrence Police Foundation Board of Directors.
