0-6: Good Luck Appealing Your NCUA Examination Report!
For the 10-year period between 2002 and 2012, the OCC issued 157 appeal decisions, the FDIC issued 63, and the Federal Reserve Board issued 25, while the NCUA’s Supervisory Review Committee issued only six and sided with the examiners in all six cases. The professor who authored this recent study believes that the low number of appeals indicate that the NCUA appeals process is likely less understood and less functional than the process in place at other agencies. Or maybe credit unions just don’t feel that, given the track record, there is any point. [10/2/14]
