CUNA Mutual Group Launches Mortgage Payment Protection Program

 

CUNA Mutual Group has launched its new mortgage payment protection product for credit unions and members that covers mortgage payments in the event of a borrower’s death, disability or involuntary unemployment. Credit unions that offer it are leveraging a comprehensive insurance and training program that protects members’ home mortgages.

The launch comes just in time for summer, which is peak moving season according to the U.S. Census Bureau. It’s also the time of year when new mortgages, mortgage refinancing and protection for these investments are likely to be top-of-mind for many Americans, especially for the 45 million who move from one home to another every year. Mortgage payment protection gives credit unions a new way to support members and homeowners who may be less prepared than ever for emergency expenses.

Vought: ‘We’re Closing Down The CFPB’ — White House Budget Chief Says Agency Will Shut Down Within Months

  10/16/2025 09:03 am         WASHINGTON—White House Budget Director Russell Vought said Wednesday he plans to shut down the CFPB, PYMNTS reported. Russell Vought Speaking on  The Charlie Kirk Show , Vought said only a handful of employees remain at the CFPB’s Washington headquarters “while we close down the agency,” adding that he expects the process to be completed “within the next two or three months.” Vought’s remarks come amid a series of legal challenges targeting the Administration’s attempts to scale back or dismantle the CFPB. The Administration is currently facing lawsuits from a CFPB labor union and consumer advocacy groups, which argue that Trump lacks the authority to dismiss most of the Bureau’s staff or eliminate the agency altogether. On Wednesday, Vought repeated long-standing Republican criticisms that the CFPB has exceeded its authority and imposed unfair burdens on smaller financial institutions, PYMNTS noted. “All they want to do is wea...

Understanding the Fed’s Balance Sheet

Chair Jerome H. Powell Monetary policy is more effective when the public understands what the Federal Reserve does and why. With that in mind, I hope to enhance understanding of one of the more arcane and technical aspects of monetary policy: the Federal Reserve's balance sheet. A colleague recently compared this topic to a trip to the dentist, but that comparison may be unfair—to dentists. 1 Today, I will discuss the essential role our balance sheet played during the pandemic, along with some lessons learned. I will then review our ample reserves implementation framework and the progress we have made toward normalizing the size of our balance sheet. I will conclude with some brief remarks on the economic outlook. Background on the Fed's Balance Sheet One of the primary purposes of a central bank is to provide the monetary foundation for the financial system and the broader economy. This foundation is made of central bank liabilities. On the Fed's balance sheet, the liabili...
