Cooperatives raise capital primarily through member contributions, where members buy shares or pay membership fees to fund the cooperative's operations. They may also generate capital through retained earnings, reinvesting profits back into the cooperative. Additionally, cooperatives can access loans from financial institutions or grants from government programs and non-profit organizations that support cooperative development. Some cooperatives may also seek external investors, although this can affect their member-focused governance structure.
Credit unions are nonprofit financial institutions. Technically, you're answer is incorrect. Credit unions are not-for-profit, member owned, financial cooperatives. They are NOT the Salvation Army, the Red Cross, or Goodwill, which are nonprofit organizations. Credit Unions must earn money to cover overhead & operations, provide returns to their members and build capital. Since they are cooperatives, they issue no stock (which banks do to raise capital to expand branchs and offer additional services) and the only way credit unions can build capital is through earnings.

Public limited companies (PLCs) and cooperatives both operate within the business sector but serve different purposes and structures. Similarities include their ability to raise capital from multiple investors and their governance involving member participation. However, PLCs are owned by shareholders who seek profit, and their shares are publicly traded, whereas cooperatives are owned and operated by members for mutual benefit, often prioritizing community and service over profit. Additionally, decision-making in cooperatives is typically democratic, with each member having an equal vote, contrasting with the shareholder-driven approach of PLCs.
