The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) announced it is continuing a review of its regulations under the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996 (EGRPRA) decennial process, which it is participating in on a voluntary basis. The review is intended to inform the agency’s Deregulation Project and future rounds of regulatory changes. Under the EGRPRA review, NCUA is assessing rules covering applications and reporting, powers and activities, agency programs, capital, consumer protection, corporate credit unions, directors officers and employees, anti-money laundering and the Bank Secrecy Act, rules of procedure, and safety and soundness. A Federal Register notice sets a 90-day comment period, after which the agency expects the review to continue feeding into its deregulation work and broader efforts to tailor requirements to the size and risks of credit unions while maintaining safety and soundness.
