Mergers of Federally-Insured Credit Unions; Voluntary Termination or Conversion of Insured Status

الملخص

The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) is issuing a proposed rule on credit union mergers, federal share insurance terminations, and conversions from federal share insurance to nonfederal insurance. The proposed rule establishes communication and disclosure requirements to ensure that members are fully and properly informed before they vote on whether to convert from federal insurance to nonfederal insurance. The proposed rule provides protections to members who may lose federal insurance because they have large insured accounts at two federally-insured credit unions that are merging or they have term accounts at a federally-insured credit union that is converting to nonfederal insurance. The proposal also requires merging credit unions to analyze the premerger requirements imposed on credit unions by the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act and provides other miscellaneous updates to the existing rule governing credit union mergers, terminations, and conversions of share insurance.
