NCUA Reports Continued Credit Union Loan Growth in First Quarter of 2016


"ALEXANDRIA, Va. (June 3, 2016) – Credit unions continued to increase their lending, with loans outstanding increasing 10.7 percent in the year ending in the first quarter of 2016, the National Credit Union Administration reported today.

 “The credit union system again experienced solid performance during the first quarter of 2016,” NCUA Board Chairman Rick Metsger said. “Overall, new and used auto lending was especially strong, and the system gained one million members. With an influx of deposits, federally insured shares at credit unions also neared the $1 trillion mark coming in at $991.7 billion.

 “As credit union lending has increased, long-term investments have declined and reduced the system’s interest rate risk. However, delinquency and charge-off rates are slightly higher than a year ago, and member-business loan delinquencies are rising even more. Credit unions making such loans should take note and ensure that they perform proper due diligence to mitigate the risk.

”NCUA released the new figures today, based on Call Report data submitted to and compiled by the agency for the quarter ending March 31, 2016."

The Fed offered additional insights into its decision to make no changes to rates.

WASHINGTON–The Fed has released minutes from its March meeting, offering additional insights into its decision to make no changes to rates. As CUToday.info reported earlier, the Fed opted not to change rates at its March meeting and is now indicating it’s unlikely to change rates at all during 2019 and perhaps won’t move again until 2021. President Trump has been pushing the Fed to lower rates to encourage greater growth. Minutes released by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) show the FOMC found the labor market remains strong but that “growth of economic activity has slowed from its solid rate in the fourth quarter.” The FOMC further found payroll employment was little changed in February, but job gains have been solid, on average, in recent months, and the unemployment rate has remained low. “Recent indicators point to slower growth of household spending and business fixed investment in the first quarter,” the Fed said in a statement. “In a...

Economy Will ‘Run out of Air’ in Early 2023, Predicts New Fannie Mae Forecast

12/21/2022 CUToday WASHINGTON—Following an upward revision to third quarter 2022 real gross domestic product (GDP) and stronger-than-expected incoming personal consumption data to begin the fourth quarter, the economy is now expected to eke out positive growth of 0.4% in 2022 before entering a modest recession in the new year, according to the December 2022 commentary from the Fannie Mae Economic and Strategic Research (ESR) Group . The ESR Group stated that it views the current rate of personal consumption growth as unsustainable given the combination of a low personal saving rate and an elevated ratio of consumer debt to personal disposable income. “With many cyclical indicators continuing to point toward economic contraction, including an inverted yield curve, the ESR Group forecasts 2023 GDP growth to be negative 0.5%, an improvement from last month’s forecast of negative 0.6%,” Fannie Mae stated. “The ESR Group then expects t...
