The variables are Knowledge, Understanding, And Utilization that are predicted to have an effect on cooperative member’s Savings and Loan are explained by descriptive analysis and testing using statistics. The results showed that the lowest achievement was found in the aspect of Knowledge that had a negative influence around -32.4% and the highest achievement was found in the Utilization aspect, which was 74.3% of the members' savings.
