Ever since the NCUA board announced that it would be sending out a one-time, voluntary low-income member survey, there's been a debate within the industry over whether or not credit unions should complete it.
The members of the CUNA board, who represent both state and federal chartered CUs, have agreed to fill out the survey, while NAFCU doesn't think gauging how well CUs serve low-income members falls under the purview of NCUA. NASCUS has also asked regulators to urge state-chartered CUs not to complete the survey.
