The National Credit Union Administration Board is responsible for 
chartering, insuring, supervising, and examining Federal credit unions 
and administering the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund.The 
Board also administers the Community Development Revolving Loan Fundand 
manages the Central Liquidity Facility, a mixed-ownership Government 
corporation whose purpose is to supply emergency loans to member credit 
unions.
The National Credit Union Administration was established by act of March 
10, 1970 (12 U.S.C. 1752), and reorganized by act of November 10, 1978 
(12 U.S.C. 226), as an independent agency in the executive branch of the 
Federal Government. It regulates and insures all Federal credit unions 
and insures State-chartered credit unions that apply and qualify for 
share insurance.

Activities

Chartering  The Administration's Board grants Federal credit union 
charters to groups sharing a common bond of occupation or association, 
or groups within a well-defined neighborhood, community, or rural 
district. A preliminary investigation is made to determine if certain 
minimum standards are met before granting a Federal charter.

For further information, contact the appropriate regional office listed 
in the table below.

Examinations  The Administration conducts annual examinations of Federal 
credit unions to determine their solvency and compliance with laws and 
regulations and to assist credit union management and operations.

For further information, contact the Director, Office of Examination and 
Insurance. Phone, 703-518-6360.

Share Insurance  The act of October 19, 1970 (12 U.S.C. 1781 et seq.), 
provides for a program of share insurance. The insurance is mandatory 
for Federal credit unions and for State-chartered credit unions in many 
States and is optional for other State-chartered credit unions that meet 
Administration standards. Credit union members' accounts are insured up 
to $100,000. The National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund requires 
each insured credit union to place and maintain a 1 percent deposit of 
its insured savings with the Fund.

For further information, contact the Director, Office of Examination and 
Insurance. Phone, 703-518-6360.

Supervision  Supervisory activities are carried out through annual 
examiner contacts and through periodic policy and regulatory releases 
from the Administration. The Administration also maintains a warning 
system designed to identify emerging problems as well as to monitor 
operations between examinations.
