Rule Recently Enacted by Bank Regulators May be Model for NCUA

 ALEXANDRIA, Va.–A rule enacted by the bank regulatory agencies in late 2021 that requires notification by banks of “any significant computer-security incidents” may become a model for a similar rule from NCUA.

NCUA

In November 2021, the FDIC, OCC and the Federal Reserve approved a rule that requires banking organizations to notify them of such incidents as soon as possible and no later than 36 hours after a determination that such an incident has occurred.

The rule went into effect April 1 with compliance by banking organizations and their service providers required by May 1.

The bank regulators defined a “computer-security incident” as one that results in “actual harm to the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of an information system or the information that the system processes, stores, or transmits.”

During the NCUA board meeting on Thursday, NCUA Chairman Todd Harper asked Kelly Lay, director of the Office of Examination and Insurance, about whether the agency is considering a similar rule.

Lay responded by saying yes, the agency’s staff is now reviewing what the banking industry regulators have implemented and are exploring whether a similar rule should be considered for credit unions.

WASHINGTON–What’s known: should President Trump’s tariffs remain in place, new and used vehicle prices are going to get even higher. The unknown: Will members stop buying cars, move from new to used, or given how many buy cars according to payment, move to less-expensive models? The tariffs also may create challenges for credit unions that serve some autoworkers. All of those questions and more remain much in flux with analysts predicting  auto prices could rise by $5,000 to $10,000 per vehicle and wreak havoc on the market as the result of 25% import tariffs on vehicles and auto parts.   As the CU Daily reports separately, however, Black Book believes automakers will spread out the incremental cost of tariffed vehicles across their entire showroom to retain relative vehicle transaction prices. Still, the company expects tariffs to push the average transaction price on vehicles to more than $50,000. ‘A Debacle’ “The tariffs are a debacle of epic proportions for the a...
