NCUA Issues Final Rule to Revise Record Preservation Requirements

ALEXANDRIA, Va. ― The National Credit Union Administration has issued a final rule revising record preservation requirements for credit unions in the event of a catastrophic act. This rule is codified at 12 CFR 749.   “Maintaining vital records is essential to the safety and soundness of any federally insured credit union’s operations and its ability to best serve members,” NCUA Chairman Kyle Hauptman said in a statement. “But NCUA, unlike other regulators, didn’t have a limit on how long records had to be kept. This led to unnecessary cost, hassle and uncertainty. This final rule will ease unnecessary and overly prescriptive preservation requirements, while ensuring that credit unions retain the critical documents needed in instances of disaster”  According to the agency, the vital records preservation program rule was first created in 1972 to ensure that federally insured credit unions keep duplicate records that can be used for reconstruction purposes in the event of ...

Credit Where Credit's Due

  Credit Where Credit's Due   Credit reports 101 Used to calculate credit scores   and determine creditworthiness, credit reports are comprehensive documents that detail the credit history of a person or business, including current and former lines of credit, bankruptcy records, and more.  Credit assessments actually started in the 1700s   as a way to evaluate businesses’ financial standing rather than consumers’.

47-Second Loan Décisions. Underwriting in Minutes. How AI is Revolutionizing Turnaround Time in Mortgage Lending

May 27, 2026 CU Today TORONTO–While AI has been deployed across a host of back office functions, on the consumer-facing side its promise is increasingly being seen in mortgage lending, where lenders are promising mortgage approval decisions in as little as 47 seconds, reporting that up to a third of inquiries are now being handled by chatbots, and slashing underwriting time to just minutes. Toronto-based TD Bank Group said it has also deployed its first agentic artificial intelligence system in mortgage lending, reducing the time required to prepare applications for underwriting from an average of roughly 15 hours to less than three minutes. According to a statement from TD Bank, the new AI model automates mortgage pre-adjudication — the process that occurs before a human underwriter reviews an application. The bank said the system classifies borrower documents, extracts and validates financial information, calculates income, performs policy and consent checks, identifies discrepancie...

Alexandria, VA (June 8, 2026) ― The National Credit Union Administration today issued a final rule for Dependent Care and Board Member Reimbursement. The NCUA Board amended its regulations concerning the reimbursement of reasonable expenses for federal credit union officials to remove potential barriers to volunteer service.

It will not apply to federally insured, state-chartered credit unions, which remain subject to state law.

The Off-the-Record Conversations That Need to be On-the-Record

By Frank J. Diekmann For a while now I have had a pretty good idea what someone is about to say when they begin by saying, “Off the record, Frank, but… And then they say out loud what had previously been whispered. That is, the motto may be “people helping people,” but there is an increasing belief that credit unions aren’t helping themselves--at all—with these professional sports franchise tie-ups and with their purchases of banks that in some cases are located numerous states away and are nowhere near the home office. And all of this it taking place with the Senate Committee on Finance this week set to hold a hearing titled “2025 Tax Policy Debate and Tax Avoidance Strategies.” While it’s not formally part of the agenda, the hearing will...
