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.

NAFCU doubling down on advocacy efforts, says Berger
"At NAFCU, relationship building is our strong suit. As we welcome President Joe Biden and Vice President 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 credit union industry," wrote NAFCU President and CEO Dan Berger in a new editorial published in CU Today.
