What this page does not show
Everything above is Great Lakes First Credit Union’s own reported position. What a CUSignals subscription adds is the layer on top of it: a merger-susceptibility score and calibrated one-year probability, a franchise-value score, a liquidity-stress score and funding-need flag, participation buyer/seller classification, and buying-propensity scores across five software categories — each with the plain-English reason it moved, and each decomposable into the weights that produced it.
