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.
