GuidanceNational Credit Union Administration (NCUA)General Information
National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) Vice Chairman Rodney E. Hood joined fifty credit union CEOs in Boston for a roundtable dialogue during which he outlined his regulatory focus for 2006.
"Regulatory flexibility will be a top priority of mine in 2006," said Vice Chairman Hood. He discussed the recent final rule empowering an additional 413 federal credit unions with RegFlex eligibility by allowing well-managed, well-capitalized credit unions with a qualifying net worth requirement of 7% rather than 9% for earned regulatory flexibility.
"This rule demonstrates the Board’s belief that the agency should not micro-manage, well-managed institutions," said Vice Chairman Hood. "This year, I will look for ways to reduce unnecessary regulatory burdens on credit unions."
