The correct answer is A. Most credit unions require some kind of affiliation, but banks will let anyone with money open an account.

Step-by-step explanation:

Credit unions similar to banks offer financial services including loans and the possibility to have an account. However, to access any service in a credit union it is necessary to belong to it, which often implies meeting some criteria or completing a process of affiliation. This is because credit unions are owned and controlled by its member and they offer services only to members. This does not occur in most banks because anyone can access to most services. Thus, it is easier to open ant account at a bank because most credit unions require affiliation (option A.)
