Simpler Rules for Federal Credit Unions
The NCUA proposes to remove 12 CFR §701.26, a rule about credit union service contracts, to reduce administrative costs and compliance complexity for federal credit unions. The Board says this change will let federal credit unions serve their members more efficiently and certifies the rule would not have a significant economic impact on small credit unions (those with under $100 million in assets). Comments are due April 27, 2026.
