The NCUA yesterday published a Letter to Credit Unions regarding operating fees for 2023. In the letter, the agency announced an average 1.8 percent decrease in federal credit union operating fees in 2023. The reduction of operating fees was attributed to the NCUA Board’s decision to apply $15 million of previously collected operating fees that were not spent and would apply to a federal credit union that experienced no change in average assets in 2022. The median-sized federal credit union will pay 9.3 percent more in operating fees this year than the median-sized federal credit union paid in 2022.
