Compliance: NCUA releases MBL FAQs to aid implementation

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

NCUA’s revised member business lending (MBL) rule has been in effect for more than 6 months now, and according to the agency, it has received a number of questions about the rule and its implementation. In this quarter’s NCUA Report, the agency tackled some of the most frequently asked questions.

Chief among those questions is: What are NCUA’s expectations under the new MBL and commercial loan rule?

The answer: NCUA expects credit unions to offer commercial loans in a safe and sound manner and structured appropriately for the member’s needs and within the member’s financial abilities.

The new rule requires active oversight by senior managers and the board, but also extends flexibility to credit unions to establish policies and program controls instead of prescriptive regulatory requirements.

The rule now takes a more principles-based approach to managing a commercial loan program and allows management to tailor appropriate risk-management practices to suit their individual circumstances.

This week: NAFCU celebrates 50 years, in Hawaii; TCPA, patent hearings ahead

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

NAFCU this week is celebrating its 50th anniversary with credit unions during its Annual Conference and Solutions Expo in Honolulu. The association will also be monitoring hearings reviewing lawsuit abuse related to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act and patents, and a mark-up of flood insurance legislation.

NAFCU’s Annual Conference kicks off on Tuesday and runs through Friday. For live updates on the conference, follow NAFCU Today and Twitter with #NAFCUAnnual.

The House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice on Tuesday will review lawsuit abuse in connection with the TCPA. NAFCU has repeatedly shared with Congress and the Federal Communications Commission how the interpretation of the TCPA makes it more difficult for credit unions to contact members about potentially fraudulent activity, identity theft and data breaches.

Also on Tuesday, the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property and the Internet will examine a recent Supreme Court decision that now limits patent holders’ ability to concentrate their infringement lawsuits in plaintiff-friendly jurisdictions. NAFCU said this decision is a win for credit unions because it will now be harder for patent trolls to come after them with frivolous claims.

Poor management practices can lead to lawsuits

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Ineffective or unskilled managers can cause you to lose your best talent, and present one of the biggest exposures to an employment practices liability lawsuit. In fact, one in eight U.S. companies faces the prospect of having an employment charge filed against them each year, according to the insurance provider Hiscox.

Of the credit union claims filed with CUNA Mutual Group’s Management Professional Liability Policy, approximately 50% of all claim dollars relate to employment practices liability losses.

These losses often involve discrimination, harassment, and/or retaliation. Even with seasoned human resource (HR) professionals, up-to-date policies, and the latest workforce management technology, a poorly trained—or just plain bad—manager can negatively impact the credit union. The impact reflects both financial and reputational risk.

Take these actions to avoid this loss trend:

  • Train managers on existing policies and expectations of behavior. Be specific when discussing discrimination, harassment, and anti-retaliation policies. Be extremely clear about what you consider acceptable and unacceptable behavior.

What moves the oil? Certainly, no news from the Middle East Despite news that oil production had dropped, prices continued to fall. From a trader’s point of view, if market is not reacting to bullish news then it does not makes sense to stay long.

Thandie Newton: We don’t just need more black women in movies. We need intersectionality, now

http://ift.tt/2r9iY93

2202.jpg?w=300&q=55&auto=format&usm=12&f

Not all black people are men; not all women are white. Too often the distinct and different stories of women of colour are overlooked or erased

I have been an actor for more than 20 years now, and throughout that time there has been an ongoing discussion of diversity. Is there enough diversity in Hollywood? How many people of colour and women are enough? Does diversity sell? First it was: why are there no black films at the Oscars? Then, at the 2017 Oscars: wow, there are so many black movies at the Oscars; I guess the diversity issue is fixed?

As important as diversity in storytelling is, there is a deeper concern than representation. There are stories that must be told but that are all too often erased, even within narratives about race, or about gender. A group I work with, the African American Policy Forum (AAPF) and its co-founder, law professor Kimberlé Crenshaw, have been raising this issue for more than 20 years. Because narrative erasures happen not only on the screen, but in public discourse as well. And the consequences have been devastating, as racial justice, feminism and other social justice discourses have been needlessly divided and set at odds with each other.
