Markets Wired

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (Feb. 16, 2016) – The video recording of the January 2016 open meeting of the National Credit Union Administration Board is now available on the agency’s website.

Archived videos of past Board meetings may be viewed here, and each video remains on the site for one year.

At the January open meeting, the NCUA Board unanimously approved issuing three items for public comment, including the agency’s:

• Methodology for calculating the annual Overhead Transfer Rate;
• Methodology for calculating the annual Federal Credit Union Operating Fee; and
• Proposed 2017–2021 Strategic Plan describing NCUA’s strategic goals in the areas of safety and soundness, consumer protection and financial literacy, and workforce development and diversity.

The Board also unanimously approved technical amendments to the agency’s regulations to reflect changes in the function and reporting responsibilities of the Office of Minority and Women Inclusion.

NCUA posts these videos as part of the agency’s ongoing efforts to provide transparency and to allow those unable to attend Board meetings the opportunity to become better informed. An interval between the meeting and posting is necessary for the videos to comply with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act for the hearing and visually impaired.

The Board Actions page of NCUA’s website has more information, including Board agendas, which are posted at least one week in advance of each open meeting, copies of Board Action Bulletins, which summarize the meetings, copies of Board memorandums and other documents.
