NCUA board member Todd Harper joined the American Association of Credit Union Leagues’ (AACUL) Regulatory Advocacy/Compliance Advisory Committee Wednesday to discuss credit union policy issues, including responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.

AACUL’s Regulatory Advocacy/Compliance Advisory Committee provides advice and feedback to both CUNA and AACUL regarding federal and state regulatory advocacy and compliance issues affecting credit unions.

It seeks to develop and promote successful efforts for favorably impacting the regulatory/compliance process, including identification of best practices in regulatory advocacy, delivering compliance support and developing methods to better coordinate credit union input through the League/CUNA structure to provide more consistent and effective messaging to regulators.

Harper also spoke with CUNA President/CEO Jim Nussle earlier this week in a conversation following up CUNA’s Sept. 16 letter outlining feedback and concerns from member credit unions.
