CFPB on Friday announced the new credit union representatives joining the bureau's Credit Union Advisory Council, which includes six NAFCU member credit union leaders.

"We appreciate CFPB considering our recommendations in their selection process for this important group," said NAFCU President and CEO Dan Berger. "We thank and congratulate the credit union members of the CUAC, who will be providing their valuable insight and expertise as the CFPB reviews future regulations impacting our industry."

NAFCU member credit union representatives appointed to the CUAC include:

• Faith Anderson, senior vice president and general counsel at American Airlines Federal Credit Union (Fort Worth, Texas);
• Daniel Berry, CEO at Duke University Federal Credit Union (Durham, N.C.);
• Patrick Harrigan, chief risk officer at Service Credit Union (Portsmouth, N.H.);
• Ricardo Ledezma, corporate compliance assurance manager at SACU (San Antonio Federal Credit Union, San Antonio, Texas);
• Dayatra Matthews, senior vice president of legal and compliance at Local Government Federal Credit Union (Raleigh, N.C.);
• Raynor Zillgitt, general counsel at Lake Trust Credit Union (Brighton, Mich.).

The two additional credit unions executives also appointed to the CUAC are Amy Nelson, president and CEO at Point West Credit Union (Portland, Ore.), and Sarah Marshall, manager at North Side Community Federal Credit Union (Chicago, Ill.).

The CUAC has 15 members, all of them from credit unions with $10 billion or less in assets. Newly appointed members will serve two-year terms. The CUAC was formed under the Dodd-Frank Act to provide direct feedback to CFPB on its policy development, research, rulemaking and engagement functions.
