NCUA Board Member Tanya  Oatska Statement on N C U A’s Collection of Overdraft and Non-Sufficient Fund Data
 
during a meeting of the NCUA Board.

As Prepared for Delivery on May twenty second, twenty twenty four

The N.C.U.A. has a responsibility to ensure we have a safe and sound system of cooperative credit and a mandate to ensure that credit unions are following all applicable laws. The actions that N C U A has taken over the years with respect to overdraft and fee income is consistent with those responsibilities.

It’s important for the N C U A to understand the data both at the individual institution level and system wide. We also need to make sure that it is transparent for credit unions, credit union members and the public. Overdraft practices and fees should already be disclosed to members and in compliance with applicable laws.

An overreliance on overdraft and NSF fees adversely affects both members and their credit unions. Institutions that rely more on fee income have greater concentration risk.

N C U A’s supervisory priorities have included overdrafts for several years. In 20 18 and 20 19, N C U A examiners reviewed credit union overdraft practices, including opt-in disclosures, and conducted transaction testing to verify that credit unions were complying with the applicable regulatory provisions.

In 20 22, examiners requested information about a credit union’s policies and procedures governing its overdraft programs.

In 20 23, NCUA examiners started conducting reviews of overdraft website advertising, balance calculation methods, and settlement processes for federal credit unions with assets totaling 500 million dollars or more.

I think it is prudent to not prejudge the data or assume a narrative before assessing the data in aggregate. Our very capable staff is currently assessing the newly collected data and I look forward to reviewing it to get a better sense of the bigger picture.

 

This concludes the statement.

Board Member Tanya Oatska Statement
on N C U A’s Collection of Overdraft

and Non-Sufficient Fund Data

during a meeting of the NCUA Board.

The N.C.U.A.

has a responsibility to ensure we have
a safe and sound system of cooperative

credit and a mandate to ensure that credit
unions are following all applicable laws.

The actions that N C U A has taken
over the years with respect to

overdraft and fee income is consistent
with those responsibilities.

It’s important for the N C U A to
understand the data both at the individual

institution level and system wide.

We also need to make sure that it
is transparent for credit unions,

credit union members and the public.

Overdraft practices and fees should
already be disclosed to members and

in compliance with applicable laws.

An overreliance on overdraft and N.S.F.

fees adversely affects both
members and their credit unions.

Institutions that rely more on fee
income have greater concentration risk.

N C U A’s supervisory priorities have
included overdrafts for several years.

In 20 18 and 20 19, N C U A examiners
reviewed credit union overdraft practices,

including opt-in disclosures, and
conducted transaction testing to verify

that credit unions were complying with
the applicable regulatory provisions.

In 20 22, examiners requested
information about a credit

union’s policies and procedures
governing its overdraft programs.

In 20 23, NCUA examiners started
conducting reviews of overdraft website

advertising, balance calculation
methods, and settlement processes

for federal credit unions with assets
totaling 500 million dollars or more.

I think it is prudent to not prejudge
the data or assume a narrative before

assessing the data in aggregate.

Our very capable staff is currently
assessing the newly collected data and

I look forward to reviewing it to get
a better sense of the bigger picture.
