2026-16031, Chartering and Field of Membership for Federal Credit Unions-Interpretive Ruling and Policy Statement 08-2

2026-16027, Suretyship and Guaranty; Segregated Deposit and Collateral
The NCUA Board (Board) is amending its regulations to eliminate prescriptive segregated deposit and collateral requirements for suretyship and guaranty agreements. By removing these requirements, the Board is authorizing federally insured credit unions (FICUs) acting as sureties and guarantors to design products that address member needs while maintaining safety and soundness standards. Federal credit unions (FCUs), and federally insured, state-chartered credit unions (FISCUs) if permitted under state law to act as a surety or guarantor, continue to be subject to other requirements related to these arrangements, including the applicable lending regulations. The final rule follows publication of the December 29, 2025, proposed rule, and takes into consideration the public comments received.
2026-16030, Purchase, Sale, and Pledge Of Eligible Obligations

The new rule kicks in on September 8, 2026, helping credit unions save time without changing how they protect members' money.
2026-16022, Corporate Credit Unions
The NCUA Board (Board) is issuing this action to rescind its Interpretive Ruling and Policy Statement (IRPS) 11-02, which addresses chartering corporate credit unions, because it is redundant to the Federal Corporate Credit Union Chartering Manual. This action eliminates potential confusion.
