Credit Union Dashboard in Power BI
🔑 Key Features of the Credit Union Dashboard in Power BI
📌 5 KPI Summary Cards on the Overview page — Total Savings, Total Applications, Denied Count, Approved Count, and Avg Interest Rate sit as headline tiles. Each card recalculates instantly when you change a slicer or refresh the data source, so leadership sees fresh portfolio numbers without rebuilding visuals.
📌 4 multi-dimensional slicers filter every visual on every page — Branch, Region, Loan Type, and Member Type. Click one slicer and Funding Rate, Total Loan Amount, and Approval Rate all rerender across the report in under a second on a typical mid-range laptop.
📌 5 dedicated report pages separate Overview, Branch Analysis, Loan Insights, Monthly Trend, and Member & Channel views — so loan officers, branch managers, and the CFO each open the page that matches their role instead of scrolling through one cluttered tab.
📌 Funding Rate KPI measures the percentage of approved applications that actually funded — the single most important leakage metric for a credit union loan pipeline. The dashboard breaks this down by month and by branch so you can spot which locations are converting approvals into disbursed loans.
📌 Branch-level performance comparison — Total Applications by Branch, Total Savings by Branch, and Approval Rate by Branch sit side-by-side on the Branch Analysis page, making it obvious which branches drive volume and which need pipeline coaching.
📌 Print-ready and presentation-ready — Power BI’s native export pushes the entire report to PDF or PowerPoint without breaking formatting, making board meetings and regulator submissions a 1-click task.
📦 What’s Inside the Credit Union Dashboard in Power BI
This dashboard contains multiple report pages, each engineered for a specific credit union persona — CFO, branch manager, lending head, and member services lead.
1 — Overview Page
The Overview is the executive landing page. The top strip contains five KPI cards giving an instant read on portfolio health:
🔸 Total Savings
🔸 Total Applications
🔸 Denied Count
🔸 Approved Count
🔸 Avg Interest Rate
Below the cards, four visuals show how the portfolio is moving:
🔸 Total Loan Amount by Month Name — reveals seasonality and identifies which months drive the bulk of disbursements, so you can plan capacity and treasury timing.
🔸 Funding Rate — measures approved-to-funded conversion as a single citable percentage, the cleanest health check on the loan pipeline.
🔸 Total Savings by Region — shows deposit concentration across regions, useful for liquidity planning and regional marketing spend allocation.
🔸 Total Loan Amount by Branch — ranks branches on lending volume so the CFO can spot top and bottom performers in one glance.

2 — Branch Analysis
This page is built for branch managers and regional heads who need a comparable scorecard across locations. Visuals on this page include:
🔸 Total Applications by Branch — volume of pipeline coming in at each branch, used to size staffing and underwriting capacity.
🔸 Total Savings by Branch — deposit base per branch, a key indicator of member loyalty and cross-sell potential.
🔸 Approval Rate by Branch — the percentage of applications approved at each location, flagging branches with unusually low or high acceptance for credit policy review.
Branch Analysis
3 — Loan Insights
The Loan Insights page slices the loan book by product type and time, giving the lending head a clear picture of which products drive returns and which underperform.
🔸 Approval Rate by Loan Type — shows which loan products (auto, mortgage, personal, share-secured, etc.) get approved most often, useful for tightening or loosening underwriting policy by product.
🔸 Avg Interest Rate by Loan Type — benchmarks pricing across loan products against market and against your own rate sheet.
🔸 Approval Rate by Month Name — tracks how approval discipline is trending month over month, surfacing seasonal patterns or policy drift.
Loan Insights
4 — Monthly Trend
The Monthly Trend page connects activity to time, the lens regulators and boards usually want.
🔸 Funding Rate by Month Name — tracks how reliably approvals are converting into funded loans across the calendar.
🔸 Total Loan Amount by Quarter — rolls disbursement up to quarterly totals for board reporting and YoY comparisons.
🔸 Funded Count by Month Name — loan-count trend that complements the dollar view, useful when small loans drive the count and a few large loans drive the amount.
Monthly Trend
5 — Member & Channel
The Member & Channel page focuses on who is borrowing and how they arrived — the right lens for member services and digital strategy teams.
🔸 Avg Credit Score by Member Type — compares borrower quality across member segments (e.g., individual, business, joint, youth) for risk-based pricing decisions.
🔸 Total Applications by Channel — shows whether branch, online, mobile app, or call center is winning the pipeline, guiding channel investment.
🔸 Approval Rate by Channel — flags whether some channels send through better-quality applications, useful for refining digital intake forms and pre-qualification logic.

👥 Who This Template Is For — and Who It’s Not For
✅ This template is built for:
- CFOs and finance leads at credit unions with 1–20 branches who report to a board monthly
- Branch managers tracking applications, savings, and approval rate against peers
- Lending heads who need a single view of funding rate, approval rate, and average interest rate by loan type
- Power BI analysts at financial cooperatives who want a working template instead of a blank canvas
- Consultants delivering monthly portfolio reviews to community banks and credit unions
❌ This template is NOT for:
- Large national banks needing SOC 2, SSO, and row-level security tied to AD / Entra ID
- Teams without Power BI Desktop access — consider our Credit Union Dashboard in Excel instead
- Credit unions needing live integration with Jack Henry, Fiserv DNA, or Corelation KeyStone out of the box (the data model is flat-file by default, though you can rewire it to a DirectQuery source)
- Anyone needing real-time streaming KPIs — this is a refresh-based model, not a streaming dataset

Devon is a lending head at a single-branch credit union with 4,200 members. He uses the Loan Insights page to compare Avg Interest Rate by Loan Type against his rate sheet, and the Approval Rate by Month Name visual to confirm his underwriting team isn’t drifting tighter or looser quarter over quarter.
