501(c)(14) is an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax exemption status that applies to "state-chartered credit unions and other mutual financial organizations."[1]

501(c)(14) state-chartered credit unions are composed of members with a unifying bond (such as community or employment) and operated on a not-for-profit basis. Federal credit unions, on the other hand, are exempt under section 501(c)(1). Mutual financial organizations must also be operated on a not-for-profit basis and for the mutual benefit of the membership. Mutual financial organizations include building and loan associations, mutual banks and cooperative banks founded before September 1, 1957.[2]
