Letter from NCOFCU Chairman Michael R Tobler,

Michael ToblerThere is now less than 4 months to our “Annual Convention” that will be in San Diego this year. We invite everyone that has not signed up to get your registration and hotel reservations in as soon as possible. We are looking forward to another successful convention and with the number of people signed up to date it appears we are on course to match and possible exceed last year’s attendees.

We have a talented line up of speakers and the breakout sessions will surely be lively with discussions. There is still time to submit names to our “Volunteer of the Year” award and our “Scholarship Program” which assists with financial assistance to attend the convention. Our credit unions have many talented members that should be recognized for their efforts to the credit union movement. You can submit an application on line which will be held in confidence.

We have reviewed last year’s parting comments and we are sure that we have addressed issues that were of concern. San Diego is surely one of the most desirable locations for a convention. Be sure to view our video of the convention location and surrounding area for entertainment and attractions. Plan on arriving early or stay a couple of days later to enjoy the beautiful southern California coastline.

San Diego GaslampOur convention starts with the Wednesday night reception followed with three days filled with speakers and sessions to leave you enlightened and charged to go back to your credit unions with new ideas and energy. Be sure to review our line-up speakers which will bring together information and insight into what’s happening now in credit unions and the financial market around us.

The convention is supported by a number of corporate sponsors that we invite you to visit while at the convention and support with your business. So the dates to remember are October 8-11 at the San Diego Gaslamp Quarters. As always we welcome any suggestions and comments. We hope to see you all again and meet new members.

Let the Truth be Told - Why a New NCUA Rule Could Jolt Credit Union Innovation

The National Credit Union Administration has finalized a rule to improve board and executive succession planning within the credit union industry. This strategic move aims to curb the trend of mergers driven by technological stagnation and poor succession strategies, ensuring more credit unions maintain their independence and enhance their technological capabilities. By Ken McCarthy, Manager of marketing communications at Tyfone Credit unions are merging out of existence because of an inability to invest in technology, the National Credit Union Administration Board wrote when introducing its now finalized rule on board succession planning. The regulator now requires credit unions to establish succession planning for critical positions in their organizations. But it’s likely to have even wider effects, such as preserving more independent charters and shaking up the perspectives of those on credit union boards. “Voluntary mergers can be used to create economies of scale to offer more or ...
