Show full summary
- Regulators: The NCUA Board, the FDIC, national bank supervisors, and the Federal Reserve must add economic growth to the factors they use during examinations and other supervisory actions.
- Financial institutions: Banks and credit unions will be evaluated under an explicit framework that balances economic growth considerations with traditional safety and soundness concerns.
- Scope and implementation: The change is permanent across the four statutes and only changes the agencies' evaluative criteria. It does not create new programs, funding streams, phase‑in or sunset provisions, or numeric performance metrics.
