We sat down with Elizabeth Eurgubian, former NCUA Board Member, to explore the current state of the National Credit Union Administration and what it means for the financial services industry. The NCUA is structured to operate with a bipartisan, three-member board--with members appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. Since the election, the NCUA Board has been functioning with fewer than three members, raising important questions about oversight, governance, and decision-making. This episode will examine the practical and policy implications for the financial services industry when the NCUA Board is not fully staffed, and whether this could lead to an environment of more centralized regulators. We will also discuss the difference in regulatory conduct between Credit Unions and Banks and the recent hot topic of tax-exempt status for CUs.
