The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) is proposing changes to the regulations governing Credit Union Service Organizations (CUSOs). The proposed rule aims to expand the types of loans CUSOs can originate to match any loan that a Federal credit union (FCU) may offer, giving credit unions more flexibility in their operations. Additionally, the rule seeks to broaden the investment power of FCUs in CUSOs, potentially allowing investment in organizations that serve the broader financial community, not just credit unions. The NCUA invites public comments on these proposals, which aim to enhance credit union competitiveness and cooperative efforts.

The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) is updating its rules to increase the maximum civil monetary penalties to keep up with inflation, as required by several laws. These adjustments are made to ensure that penalties are effective and reflect current economic conditions. The adjustments will be effective immediately and apply to violations occurring from November 2, 2015, onwards. This rule change doesn't require public comment because it's mainly a technical update in line with legal requirements.

The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) proposes changes to credit union rules to make it easier for federal credit unions to expand and serve more groups and underserved areas. They want to count shared branches, ATMs, and electronic facilities in certain networks as "service facilities," even if the credit union doesn't own them. This would help credit unions offer more services without needing to buy into a shared network. The NCUA is also considering whether online banking should count as a service facility to accommodate modern trends in financial services.

The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) plans to submit an information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) as part of their compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This request concerns the regulation for Liquidity and Contingency Funding Plans, which is intended to ensure that federally insured credit unions manage liquidity risks effectively. The NCUA's rule, codified in 12 CFR 741.12, creates a tiered system based on asset size that requires various levels of planning and preparation among credit unions. Public comments on this submission are welcome until March 15, 2021.

The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) is proposing a new rule to update the overdraft policy requirements for federal credit unions. This rule aims to remove the current 45-day limit for members to resolve overdrafts and instead require that the policy sets a reasonable and universally applicable time frame. This change is intended to provide more flexibility for credit unions and their members, especially considering the impacts of COVID-19. The proposal also introduces a cross-reference to Regulation E to ensure compliance with existing federal requirements for overdraft services.
