3133-AF46 202304 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 3133 National Credit Union Administration NCUA ACCESS Initiative: Chartering and Field of Membership (FOM) Regulations

The Board’s Advancing Communities through Credit, Education, Stability, and Support (ACCESS) initiative is designed to refresh and modernize regulations, policies, and programs in support of greater financial inclusion within the NCUA and the credit union system. As part of the ACCESS initiative, the Board previously issued a proposed rule to amend its chartering and field of membership regulations. The proposed regulatory amendments would remove outdated requirements, simplify the charter approval process, and clarify regulatory language. The Board will review the comments and consider final action.
