NAFCU's Compliance School is only a couple of weeks away and we are busy putting together the final details - including our presentations.  One of the sessions is on NCUA's Share Insurance and I wanted to share my favorite slide:

To me, Bozo's Grand Prize Game contains lessons for understanding share insurance coverage.  An account can only fit in one "bucket" at a time.  Understanding this helps explain share insurance coverage and how members can structure their accounts to maximize share insurance.

NAFCU's March Compliance Monitor.  The March issue of NAFCU's Compliance Monitor is now available for NAFCU members.  The March issue highlights NAFCU's Scope & Applicability Charts and includes two main articles:

• Understanding the Small Servicer Exemptions

• NCUA's Final Credit Ratings Rule Impacts Credit Union Investments

There are also numerous Q&As on the CFPB's new mortgage requirements - including ones submitted during our webcast on the CFPB's Final Mortgage Regulations (available for on-demand purchase).

NAFCU Members:  If you click on the article links above you'll notice a new feature - we are publishing our articles in HTML format (in addition to the PDF).  This means the articles are fully-searchable on NAFCU's website.  And, we have more enhancements in the works as well - so stay tuned!

Have a great weekend!
