Federal Credit Union Field of Membership and Chartering Policy

概要

The NCUA Board is proposing to amend its policies so that senior citizen and retiree groups will be required to meet the same conditions as other associational groups in order to qualify for a federal credit union charter or addition to an existing charter through a field of membership amendment. The Board is also proposing five technical amendments to clarify operational issues. The amendments clarify: The application of field of membership requirements to mergers; the streamlined expansion procedure; the documentation requirements for low-income communities; the use of surveys to support a community common bond; and appeal procedures.
