CUs Should Be Excluded from FASB Loss Reporting Proposal
That’s the position being taken by CUNA Acting President/CEO, Bill Hampel. The proposed rule would utilize a single "expected loss" measurement for the recognition of credit losses, replacing the multiple existing impairment models currently in use that primarily use an "incurred loss" approach. In a letter to FASB, Hampel argues that the proposed changes could have a “significant detrimental” impact on credit unions. [8/22/14]
