NCUA is amending and reinstating the
collection for 3133-0151 for NCUA's leasing regulation. 12 CFR part
714. In a leasing situation, the NCUA requires the financially
responsible party to guarantee the excess when the residual value
of a lease will exceed 25% of the original cost of the leased
property. 12 CFR 714.5. The guarantor may be the manufacturer or an
insurance company. The federal credit union must obtain and have on
file financial documentation demonstrating that the guarantor has
the resources to meet the guarantee. If a manufacturer is involved,
the federal credit union must review financial statements for the
period that would establish a reasonable financial trend. If an
insurance company is involved, it must have a major company rating
of at least a B+. The federal credit union will use the information
as part of the risk assessment process to analyze and evaluate the
financial capabilities and resources of a party that guarantees the
residual value used in a leasing arrangement.
