Case Study: Strengthening Ties with Communities: Nix Neighborhood Lending

Nix Neighborhood Lending has come a long way since it opened fifty years ago as a check cashing business inside a Los Angeles grocery store. In 2007, after the company was bought by Kinecta Federal Credit Union, Nix began shifting its business away from simply cashing checks to providing credit services to underserved communities, developing an incredible rapport and presence with its customers in South Central Los Angeles.
