The NCUA Board at its July 20 open meeting unanimously approved issuing the proposed plan for public comment. The plan includes raising the Share Insurance Fund normal operating level from the current 1.30 percent to 1.39 percent.
Details of the NCUA’s proposed plan to close the Stabilization Fund are available online here. Questions and answers on the proposed change to the normal operating level are available online here (opens new window).
Comments on the proposed plan must be received by Sept. 5. Comments may be submitted by email to [email protected]. The Federal Register notice (opens new window) of the proposed closure plan also includes instructions for submitting comments by fax, mail, courier, or hand delivery.
The proposed plan is expected to result in a Share Insurance Fund distribution of between $600 million and $800 million to credit unions in 2018. At the July open meeting, the Board also approved a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (opens new window) amending its rule governing insurance fund equity distributions, including those expected to result from closing the Stabilization Fund.
