Requirements for Insurance; National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund Equity Distributions; Correction

AGENCY:

National Credit Union Administration (NCUA).

ACTION:

Final rule; correcting amendment.

SUMMARY:

On February 23, 2018, the NCUA Board (Board) published a final rule adopting amendments to its share insurance requirements rule to provide stakeholders with greater transparency regarding the calculation of each eligible financial institution's pro rata share of a declared equity distribution from the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF). A clerical error appeared that resulted in an incorrect amendatory instruction. This document corrects that error.

DATES:

This correction is effective April 6, 2018.

Benjamin M. Litchfield, Staff Attorney, Office of General Counsel, the National Credit Union Administration, at 1775 Duke Street, Alexandria, Virginia 22314-3428, or by telephone at (703) 518-6540.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On February 23, 2018, at 83 FR 7954, the Board published a final rule adopting amendments to 12 CFR part 741. Amendatory instruction 2.a.iv. called for revising the definition of “equity ratio” in § 741.4. However, the final rule did not set out regulatory text for the revised definition of “equity ratio.” This was an inadvertent drafting error. This document corrects that error by amending the final rule to supply a revised definition for “equity ratio.”

List of Subjects in 12 CFR Part 741

• Bank deposit insurance
• Credit unions
• Reporting and recordkeeping requirements

For the reasons discussed above, the Board amends 12 CFR part 741 as follows:
