ARLINGTON, Va.—NAFCU is moving into an area that has long been CUNA’s domain: individual state-level events.
In 2016, the National Association of Federal Credit Unions officially changed its name to the National Association of Federally Insured Credit Unions and opened its membership to state-chartered credit unions.
Now, NAFCU is launching a virtual roadshow featuring more than 20 events targeting individual states and regions.
The trade association stated the events are intended to keep the industry informed of the latest information and challenges impacting operations amid the coronavirus pandemic.
‘Well Aware of Challenges’
"At NAFCU, we are well aware of the challenges credit unions face amid the coronavirus pandemic," said NAFCU President and CEO Dan Berger. "In response, our team is taking our passion and commitment to extreme member service on a virtual roadshow to assist the industry in overcoming operational and regulatory challenges. NAFCU is committed to the success of the credit union industry and its 120 million members, and we are proud to offer proactive and localized learnings during this difficult time."
The roadshow kicks off Monday with an event specifically for New York-based credit unions and runs through the end of July with events covering all 50 states and U.S. territories where credit unions operate.
According to the association, during the virtual events, Berger, NAFCU executives and staff will lead discussions on how the global crisis has impacted the industry, what credit unions can expect from a regulatory and legislative perspective in the coming months, and strategies to move forward. Information will be tailored to address what credit unions are seeing in their individual states and regions.
Attendees will be able to submit questions throughout the presentation via the webinar platform.
