“This webinar offers credit unions and consumers the basics of share insurance coverage,” noted Board Member Hyland. “It was designed to respond to current increases in coverage as well as respond to some of the most frequently received questions on account structure. We hope that credit unions will avail themselves of the information so that they can be responsive to member inquires.” The National Credit Union Administration charters and supervises federal credit unions. NCUA, with the backing of the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, operates and manages the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, insuring the accounts of nearly 89 million account holders in all federal credit unions and the majority of state-chartered credit unions. NCUA is funded by credit unions, not federal tax dollars. -NCUA- |
