Abstract: The Federal Credit Union Act requires written approval of the NCUA Board before one or more federally-insured credit unions merge or before a federally-insured credit union converts to nonfederal (private) share insurance or terminates federal share insurance and authorizes the NCUA Board to prescribe rules regarding mergers of federally-insured credit unions and changes in insured status. Part 708b of NCUA’s rules sets forth the procedural and disclosure requirements for mergers of federally-insured credit unions, conversions from federal share insurance to nonfederal insurance, and federal share insurance terminations.
