The National Credit Union Administration ("NCUA") set
a January 1, 2022 effective date for a final rule that would establish a
simplified method of measuring capital adequacy for credit unions
classified as complex (those with over $500 million in total
assets). The final rule was published in the Federal Register.
As previously covered, the rule updates the
NCUA's October 2015 risk-based capital final rule,
"including addressing asset securitizations issued by credit
unions, clarifying the treatment of off-balance sheet exposures,
deducting certain mortgage servicing assets from a complex credit
union's risk-based capital numerator, updating several
derivative-related definitions, and clarifying the definition of a
consumer loan."
