History
Technicolor Federal Credit Union (TFCU) was founded on 12/12/1952 by Ernest Abel and seven employees of Technicolor Laboratories. In 2005 TFCU merged with another historic credit union, Entertainment Capital Federal Credit Union (ECFCU). ECFCU was founded on 10/27/1966 by James Kincade and seven other employees of Samuel Goldwyn Studios as Goldwyn Studios Federal Credit Union (GSFCU). In 1980, years after GSFCU and Republic Pictures Federal Credit Union merged, Warner Brothers purchased Samuel Goldwyn Studios and renamed it Warner Hollywood Studios, and GSFCU then became Warner Hollywood Studios Federal Credit Union (WHSFCU). After the Warner Hollywood Lot was sold on 1/1/2000, WHSFCU changed its name to the clever double-entendre name of Entertainment Capital Federal Credit Union. Today, Technicolor Federal Credit Union serves thousands of members from its branches in Burbank and Hollywood, helping them to save money on loans and earn more on savings.
