NAFCU's Annual Conference to feature summit focused on serving military members

NAFCU's 51st Annual ConferenceNAFCU and the Defense Credit Union Council (DCUC) will host a Defense Credit Union Summit to educate credit unions on the various rules and entities that impact providing financial services to military members. The summit will take place June 19 in Seattle, Wash., during NAFCU's 51st Annual Conference and Solutions Expo.

Registration for the summit is available here. Registration for the entire Annual Conference is available here; individuals can save $200 on their conference registration with the code ANNUALSAVINGS through April 20.

The Defense Credit Union Summit will feature military-based speakers, as well as NAFCU and DCUC leaders. The DCUC will provide attendees with its perspective on current defense issues and an overview of the council's strategy and five-year plan.

Attendees will also learn more about the Military Lending Act's (MLA) impact on small dollar lending, changes to lease language that have made it difficult for credit unions to operate on military installations, among other issues. The summit will likely discuss developments on the Department of Defense's recent interpretive rule related to guaranteed acceptance protection (GAP) insurance housed within the MLA, which NAFCU and the DCUC have been actively working to have rescinded.
