Catastrophic Act Reporting
Summary
The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) is proposing a new rule that requires credit unions to quickly report serious incidents or disasters that could harm their operations or members' money. This helps regulators stay informed about problems at credit unions so they can step in if needed to protect people's savings.
Key Points

- 2The rule applies to all credit unions supervised by NCUA, affecting millions of members nationwide who keep their money at these institutions
- 3Better reporting helps the NCUA catch problems early and protect people's deposits and personal information
- 4Credit unions have until February 28, 2026 to submit comments on whether this rule is practical and fair
- 5The exact reporting requirements and timelines will be finalized after the NCUA reviews feedback from credit unions and the public
