Abstract: Section 741.3(b)(5) of NCUA’s rules and regulations requires federally-insured credit unions with assets of more than $50 million to develop, as a prerequisites for insurability of its member deposits, a written interest rate risk management policy and a program to effectively implement the policy. The need for FICU to have a written policy to establish responsibilities and procedures for identifying, measuring, monitoring, controlling, and reporting, and establishing risk limits are essential components of safe and sound credit union operations and to ensure the security of the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF).

Short Statement: Since the promulgation of the rule, FICUs have an established policy and program in place. This is reflected by the reduction in the number of respondents to account for only new FICUs that meet the threshold. The majority of the burden is attributed to recordkeeping requirements by FICUs with more than $50 million in assets. Additional adjustments have been made to reflect the current number of credit unions complying with this rule.
