NCUA to Propose Regulatory Improvements
NCUA Chair Debbie Matz, speaking at the NAFCU Annual Conference, announced that in the coming months NCUA will be issuing three proposed rules that she believes will provide greater flexibility and guidance for credit unions. Specifically, she referred to plans to effectively eliminate the 5% cap on fixed assets, to provide greater flexibility to the member business lending rule and to update the NCUA advertising rule in order to address new technology, including social media.
