WASHINGTON — A recent CUNA paper advises smaller asset credit unions not to sharply increase fees nor suddenly change their underwriting standards in response to the down economy.
"Most credit unions now have strong balance sheets and near-record-high capital levels," CUNA's Small Credit Union Committee wrote in the paper, Managing Through Hard Times.
Other strategies the committee recommended included advertising more vigorously that deposits in the CU are insured, taking care to monitor the health of third-party vendors exercising special care when making investments.
