Assisting “Small Entity” Credit Unions Keep their Doors Open

FedComp accepts the challenge once again to keep “small entity” Credit Unions from being swallowed up by the big boys and ceasing to exist.

Fairfax, VA. (22 January 2016) – Three years ago on January 17, 2013 Credit Union Times carried a story entitled “FedComp Keeps Light on for Small Credit Union”.

And now, again FedComp is showing “small entity” credit unions how to “keep their doors open” by providing a cost efficient solution to entry to the mobile financial age with its visionary Mobility Suite of Solutions.


This set of suites, from entry to advance, allows credit unions to choose the type of member services they wish to offer; from the “Mobile Data Solution” entry suite to the full range of the services found in the “Mobile Business Solution” suite.

The first two entry Suites, “Mobile Data” and “Mobile Banking”, includes security features that are “Best-In-Class” and will stand with the billion dollar financial institutions. FedComp’s data security even meets the new FFIEC requirements (November 10, 2015), which some larger financial institutions have yet to deploy.

In the 4th quarter of 2015, FedComp completed moving all of its hosted credit unions to OGO’s Community Cloud Platform (a CUSO). This has enabled FedComp to offer the Mobile Data Solutions as a cost effective data storage system utilizing the advantages of a cloud platform. FedComp is able to provide its hosted clients a full range of security services, including:
  • State-of-the-art IT resources with end-to-end security
  • Offsite data security
  • Data redundancy
  • Anywhere any time 24/7 disaster recovery
  • NCUA compliance reporting
When a credit union is hosted with FedComp they no longer need to be concerned about onsite hardware security, contingency, or NCUA audits as FedComp can provide fully compliant reports for each individual credit union.

FedComp’s new Mobility Suite of Solutions is scalable, offsite, and is auditable. Each individual credit union data set is isolated specific, either logically or virtually, within the cloud platform and is locked down to meet SSAE 16, SOS 2, NCUA and other data security standards.

Another benefit given to credit unions when they are users of FedComp’s Mobility Suite of Solutions offered by MoadBus is the ability to offer a Mobile Banking app to their members equal to apps by large Wall Street banks. FedComp’s mobile banking app, is an integrated part of its core data system, not an add-on. FedComp is offering its credit union “World-Class” security in its Mobile Banking app. The app incorporate advanced user authentication, devise and transaction verification (one-time password (OTP), voice, facial recognition and finger print) and provides end-to-end security using multi-layer encryption.

As noted by FedComp’s CEO, Mr. Duff, in 2013 “FedComp can help credit unions stay on the cutting edge of technology”. The Mobility Suite of Solutions is the application of today’s cutting edge cloud-hosted mobile technology to assist “small entity” credit unions in meeting the challengers of survival in the current environment of greater and greater competition and regulations. The Mobility Suites of Solutions was designed to allow the credit unions to “pay-as-needed” for the features they desire. It is intended to assist the credit union’s CEO to better utilize their limited resources by assigning certain tasks to FedComp rather than handling them in-house. When a credit union is relieved of regulatory and back-office administrative tasks they can provide better service to their members resulting in market growth, creating new revenues.

Once again as it has for the last 30 years, FedComp is supporting its 750 plus clients and the “small entity” credit unions in general to keep their lights on and doors open.

What Does PTSD in a Firefighter Look Like? A New Brain Scan Can Show You

Link Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is often described as one of the invisible scars that firefighters and others accumulate after years of dealing with trauma in their jobs. Now the scars are invisible no longer. A new tool—the SPECT scan—is offering a new way for firefighters and others with PTSD to visualize their injuries. SPECT stands for single photon emission computed tomography, and it creates 3-D scans of the patient’s brain that look at blood flow and brain activity, KTLA reports. Those scans can then be used to generate a treatment plan tailored to the specific patient based on the visual effects of PTSD. Retired Firefighter-Paramedic Matthew Fiorenza, a PTSD sufferer, told the station that the scans also help make the illness more tangible. “Looking at a picture of my brain, it just took the stigma out of it,” he told KTLA. “It’s like, okay, I’m not crazy.”  

The Pros and Cons of Tariffs

Since there has been so much discussion on Tariffs, I felt a post would benefit our membership. Grant Sheehan CEO NCOFCU Tariffs 1440 Business & Finance Background A tariff—a word derived from the Arabic arafa, meaning “to make known”— is a tax imposed by a government on goods that are imported or exported . Historically, tariffs have served as a primary source of revenue and a means to protect domestic industries, as they make foreign products more expensive, encouraging consumers to purchase locally produced goods. The tools have a checkered history, famously bolstering US textiles, German steel, Japanese cars, South Korean technology, and more, arguably contributing to major economic downturns like the Great Depression. Tariffs can be specific (a fixed fee per unit) or ad valorem (a percentage of the item's value). Purpose Economically, tariffs aim to protect domestic industries, generate government revenue, and influence trade policy. By imposing taxes on imported goods —wh...

Advice On Winning Over Gen Z In ’25

NEW YORK—As 2025 approaches the close of Q1, how can credit unions win over Gen Z? By tailoring credit rewards for a digital-first generation, a new report recommends. Gen Z is reshaping the workforce and redefining financial behaviors. As of 2024, this generation is poised to surpass Baby Boomers in workforce size and will make up 30% of the workforce by 2030. This rapid growth presents a major opportunity for financial institutions to tap into a younger, digitally native audience with distinct spending habits and financial needs, emphasized a GlobalData report authored by Zachary Johnson, specialist, campaign execution & strategy, financial services at VDX.tv. “Unlike previous generations, Gen Z’s economic journey has been shaped by inflation and delayed career starts due to the pandemic and skyrocketing living costs. These factors have made them highly dependent on credit, with Gen Zers being 23% more likely to own a credit card than Millennials at the same age, and carrying...
