Invest Financial Corp. announced that it will begin offering brokerage and investment services for Basking Ridge, N.J.-based Affinity Federal Credit Union. Affinity has $2.2 billion in assets and 135,000 members.

Invest will act as the bank’s third-party marketer and will provide technology platforms as well as practice management support, said Steve Dowden, president of and CEO of Invest, in a press release. “We are pleased to welcome Affinity Federal Credit Union into our growing network of financial institution,” Dowden said. “After celebrating 30 years as a business in November, we are confident our industry experience and customer service will allow us to build a lasting relationship with this organization.

Tampa, Fla.-based Invest is a subsidiary of National Planning Holdings and currently works with more than 150 banks and credit unions and 1,100 advisors nationwide.
