LUAs What You Need to Know
Key Points:
- LUAs are formal agreements between NCUA and credit unions to address severe problems
- Usually issued to troubled credit unions, though occasionally for compliance reasons
- Formal LUAs are typically published by NCUA
- LUAs describe major issues and required corrective actions with timelines
- Language in published LUAs can be very strict and one-sided
- Credit unions should seek outside advice when faced with a published LUA
- All board members are bound by an LUA, even those who vote against it
- LUAs should focus on root causes, not every minor issue
- LUAs for established credit unions generally don't have termination dates
- In the current economic climate, NCUA may be issuing more LUAs
Advice for Credit Unions:
- Understand all requirements and timelines in an LUA before signing
- Negotiate terms with NCUA if possible before finalizing
- Request reasonable time to review draft LUA with board
- Consider consulting attorneys or credit union advisors
- Be aware of reputational risks from published LUAs
- Recognize that all board members are bound by a signed LUA
