NAFCU
to NCUA: Capitalization of interest would benefit CU members
NAFCU
Director of Regulatory Affairs Ann Kossachev wrote to the NCUA Monday to offer
support for the agency’s proposed rule on capitalization of interest. The proposal,
issued during the board’s November meeting, would allow for the capitalization
of interest in connection with loan workouts and modifications and would provide
credit unions with the ability to better help their members meet payment obligations on all types of member loans.

Kamala Harris to their offices – bringing new policy agendas with them – we
are doubling down on our advocacy efforts to continue to deliver wins for the
