Simply explain why the nominee deserves to be recognized as Volunteer of the Year. The winner will receive free registration to the next NCOFCU Annual Meeting & Conference as well as a beautiful plaque to display in their home or office.

Percy Riley Jr. Conference Scholarship Fund
     It is an honor to name the coalitions conference scholarship fund, supported by contributions from member credit unions, vendors and friends of NCOFCU, in honor of Percy Riley Jr. who served as Chairman of the Board Richmond Fire Department Credit Union. Percy Riley, Jr. attended his first meeting in 2002, and every year thereafter through October, 2007 in Albuquerque.  He brought his daughter and son-in-law with him along with Wallace Garland and Glenn Grooms that year.  He was obviously ill, but he came and attended the sessions.  He died November 30, 2007.  Had he been able to attend future conferences, we are certain he would have.  Right from the start, he served on the Advisory Committee and assisted in establishing the idea of a coalition and developing the conference.  He was a very kind, caring, and volunteered his time so readily, so that is why we want to honor Percy by naming NCOFCU's conference scholarship fund the "Percy Riley Conference Scholarship Fund".

New York Stock Exchange building venue for 24/7 tokenized stock and ETF exchange

The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), via its owner   Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) , is building a new digital trading venue for 24/7 trading of tokenized stocks and ETFs, using blockchain and stablecoin-based funding for instant settlement, aiming to modernize markets by running parallel to the traditional exchange. This platform will support native digital securities and traditional shares as tokens, allowing for continuous liquidity and integrating digital assets into mainstream finance, with plans to launch later in 2026 after regulatory approval.   Key Features of the New NYSE Platform: 24/7 Trading:  Operates continuously, unlike the traditional exchange's weekday hours. Instant Settlement:  Transactions settle immediately, moving away from the current T+1 (trade date plus one day) model. Stablecoin-Based Funding :  Uses stablecoins (digital tokens pegged to fiat currency like the USD) for funding and collateral, streamlining processes outside banking hou...

Alexandria, VA (January 14, 2026)  ― The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) today announced its 2026 Supervisory Priorities, which continue the agency’s policy of “No Regulation by Enforcement,” while prioritizing safety and soundness.

What Could Tokenized Deposits Mean for CUs?

WASHINGTON—Noting that the FDIC has expressed support for tokenized deposits as insured bank liabilities, not experimental digital assets, a new analysis offers some insights into what that could mean for financial institutions, credit unions and the market in 2026 and beyond.  As PYMNTS Intelligence pointed out in its report, regulatory clarity reduces risk for banks moving from pilots to live deployments, and large banks and infrastructure providers are already testing real-world tokenized deposit use cases.  “At its simplest, tokenization converts an existing claim into a digital representation on a distributed ledger,” the report explained. “The underlying asset does not change, but the infrastructure that tracks ownership and settlement does. In banking, that distinction is critical. Tokenized deposits do not create new money. They represent traditional bank deposits, issued and redeemed by regulated institutions but designed to operate on modern, programma...
