Regulatory Advocacy

The League of Southeastern Credit Unions' Compliance team delivers compliance advice, information, and recommendations providing authoritative, definitive, and accurate information that assists in the day-to-day operations of affiliate credit unions to save time and money. With the Compliance team’s knowledge and access to a vast network of compliance information and InfoSight, an Internet-based compliance system, no stone goes unturned in the search to answer your questions. The resulting savings in both time and money make a call to the League, or a visit to InfoSight, a vital first step for a credit union to take. If you have questions or would like more information about regulatory compliance, utilize the Compliance Hotline at 866.231.0541.

Under the Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act (S.A.F.E. Act) and the agencies' final rules, residential mortgage loan originators employed by banks, savings associations, credit unions, or Farm Credit System institutions must register with the registry, obtain a unique identifier from the registry, and maintain their registrations. Visit the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System website for more information on how to sign up and be in compliance.

Credit Union Bill of Rights

The LSCU, along with CUNA, have put together a guide for credit unions to reference during their examination time. This guide lets credit unions know what their rights are during and after the exam. The NCUA is making a push to have more communications with credit unions during the exam process. Click here to read the guide. Hard cover versions of the guide will be mailed to credit unions in February.
