ALEXANDRIA, Va.­–While Board Member Mark McWatters, as expected, cast the dissenting vote in the 2-1 NCUA budget vote, he did acknowledge that progress has been made on some of the budget-transparency issues he identified as issues in remarks made at the November 2014 board meeting, when he also voted against the 2015 budget and read a long statement sharply critical of NCUA’s budget process.

WASHINGTON–In advance of today’s House hearing by the Committee on Financial Services on the NCUA budget, CUNA, NAFCU and NASCUS have filed comment letters calling on Congress to address with NCUA everything from the revised RBC proposal to third-party vendor authority to the overhead transfer rate to exam cycles.
