NCUA Board Member Rick Metsger talks to CUBG conference attendees about new MBL rules and changes at the NCUA.

PORTLAND, Ore. – In a closing session at the 2017 CUBG Annual Conference Wednesday, NCUA Board Member Rick Metsger said the NCUA is taking an active role in helping credit unions adjust to the examination process under new member business lending rules.

The new MBL rules, which were intended to allow credit unions more flexibility and opportunity in the business lending space, also left many questions about how examiners will decide if certain business lending program practices are acceptable or unacceptable. Metsger said to allow credit unions and examiners more time to adjust to the new rules, the agency decided to roll out them out early – on Jan. 1 of this year – and has been soliciting feedback on the process from credit unions out in the field.
