NCUA issues this Board Action Bulletin on the Subordinated Debt Rule:ALEXANDRIA, Va. (March 16, 2023) – The National Credit Union Administration Board held its third open meeting of 2023 and approved a final rule  on subordinated debt.In a prepared statement, Chairman Todd M. Harper said, “I support this rule because it facilitates the access of eligible credit unions to the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Emergency Capital Investment Program. Congress created ECIP to support the communities of color and low-income households hit hardest by the COVID-19 pandemic’s financial and economic disruptions. With rising interest rates, lingering inflation, and continuing economic uncertainty, under-resourced families and communities face many challenges. ECIP funding is a much-needed boost to these communities, allowing them to address short-term needs and achieve long-term financial stability.”The final rule makes two changes to the current subordinated debt rule that was finalized in 2020. Specifically, this final rule replaces the maximum permissible maturity of subordinated debt notes with a requirement that any credit union seeking to issue subordinated debt notes with maturities longer than 20 years demonstrate how such instruments would continue to be considered “debt.”The rule also extends the regulatory capital treatment of grandfathered secondary capital to the later of 30 years from the date of issuance or January 1, 2052. This extension will align the treatment of grandfathered secondary capital with the maximum permissible maturity for any secondary capital issued by low-income credit unions under the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Emergency Capital Investment Program or other programs administered by the U.S. government.In addition, the NCUA Board approved four minor modifications to other sections of the current subordinated debt rule to make it more user-friendly and flexible.“This final rule ensures eligible credit unions participating in the ECIP or other government-sponsored initiatives providing needed capital can fully benefit from those initiatives,” Chairman Harper said in his prepared statement. “The 30-year, low-cost, patient capital provided through ECIP will be a game changer in under-resourced communities nationwide. And, with this rule change, credit unions that are either MDIs or CDFIs will be well-positioned to advance economic equity and fulfill their statutory mission of meeting the credit and savings needs of their members, especially those of modest means.”The final rule is effective 30 days after publication in the Federal Register.

This is Mark Treichel with another episode of With Flying Colors. I am recording this on March 12th. Going to publish this Monday morning, and this is again about the ramification of Silicon Valley Banker sb. B being shut down. , I'm going to talk about how that might impact N C U A, what N C A might do and how that might impact you as a credit union.So N C U A, what now? Because of. S v b Bank, but first, a lot has hit the news since I recorded, , the podcast that published on Sunday. And, , there was, there's some tweets out there that, , president Biden is saying there will be no bailout. There's some tweets out there that say Janet Yellen is, , saying there will be no bailout.Janet Yellen, , was on the news shows this mor morning to help. , efforts to ensure that contagion doesn't happen. And I'll go into that a little bit. And these are all precursors of just the news that's hit in the last couple hours. And then I'll jump into, , the main topic, which is N C U A, what Now, I've also heard and seen some tweets that, , as I mentioned in my previously recorded podcast, there's no doubt F D I C and the Fed is trying to sell some assets, , this weekend.And if they do, They turn it into cash, that cash quickly can be paid out or more quickly can be paid out to the uninsured depositors. All of that is good. , there's also a new article on the Wall Street Journal, , that says, regulators face urgent task to stem spread from Silicon Valley Bank. And, , Janet Yellen., , there's a quote from Janet Yellen, , treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. It says, I've been working all weekend with our banking regulators to design appropriate policies to address this situation. Treasury Secretary, , Janet Yellen said in an interview on Face the Nation on c b s, she didn't provide.Specifics to those plans. We wanna make sure that the troubles that exist at one bank don't create contagion to others that are sound. We are concerned about depositors and are focused on trying to meet their needs. House speaker Kevin McCarthy said that he had discussed the issue with Ms. Yellen and Federal Reserve Chair Drew Powell, and that he was hopeful that the officials would be able to announce their next steps later on Sunday.They do have tools to handle the current situ. Mr. McCarthy said, , on Fox News's Sunday Morning Futures. , they do know the seriousness of this, and they're working to try to come forward with some announcement before the market opens. I'm hopeful something can be announced today. So again, I've also heard that some bank sale information may happen before the Asian markets open up., and all right, so, , there. A lot of work going on at federal agencies, , over the weekend. I'm anticipating that some folks at N C A may be, , doing some number crunching as well. So that gets me to, okay, what happens now at N C U A? So, the N C A has a board meeting on Thursday. It's a light. , light agenda., there's only one item and it's the subordinated debt Final rule. I think they're tweaking it, , as it relates potentially to EIP and some other things that they've proposed, , relative to that. So that's a good rule. But that's all that's on the agenda. I'm expecting that, , ensu, a board chairman Todd Harper, will open up and discuss., what happened at, , S V B Bank and what that means for credit unions. I think he, when he does that, he will take it as another opportunity to say that Congress needs to provide more flexibility and make changes to the rule around the C L F, also known as the central liquidity facility because there were some laws that were in place under the pandemic.For more listen to the full podcast
