NCUA Board Chairman Debbie Matz will
host six “Listening Sessions” across America
from May through July, covering all five
NCUA regions.
“What credit unions have to say is important.
Sometimes it helps to discuss issues face-to-face,” said Chairman Matz. “We want to hear
directly from credit union officials and
volunteers about how we can improve our
examination process, how we can reduce or
streamline our regulations, and anything else
that’s on your mind.”
Registration is free on NCUA’s website at
www.ncua.gov/News/Pages/listen.aspx.
Registration for the first several sessions is
now open. NCUA will open registration for
other locations in a rolling manner in the
coming weeks via NCUA CU Express.
Participation is open to the first 150 people
who register for each session.

Participants will have opportunities to
communicate with NCUA Board members,
senior NCUA staff, as well as the Regional
Director and supervisory examiners from
the region co-hosting each particular city’s
Listening Session. Participants will also have
a chance to contribute to roundtable
discussions with their peers on the top issues
facing credit unions.
“I look forward to carefully listening
to stakeholders about how to best
modernize credit union regulations and the
exam process. I remain committed to
implementing reforms while protecting the
credit union system’s safety and soundness,”
concluded Matz.

Listening Sessions, see Examination and
