ALEXANDRIA, Va.–Building on its push to pare back regulatory burden, NCUA on Tuesday unveiled a second wave of proposed rule changes under its Deregulation Project—continuing an agency-wide review aimed at identifying and scrapping outdated, duplicative, or unnecessarily complex requirements facing credit unions.
