MnCUN Regulatory Affairs Committee Offers Comment on FHLB

10/25/2022

​FHFA announced in August the "FHLBank System at 100: Focusing on the Future" initiative - two public listening sessions and a series of regional roundtable discussions through which the FHFA will engage the Federal Home Loan Bank System's stakeholders to position the System for the future.

​​​The comment letter highlighted the important role the FHLB system provides for liquidity and the secondary mortgage market. 

Still Time to Appy to Crash the GAC!

10/25/2022

 
Picture
The Credit Union National Association's Governmental Affairs Conference is the largest credit union advocacy gathering of the year. When credit unions arrive en masse in Washington D.C., there is a palatable energy one cannot ignore.

​The Cooperative Trust, CUNA and MnCUN are joining forces to get at least one Crasher per state and D.C. to the 2023 CUNA Governmental Affairs Conference (GAC). 

This is the premier credit union advocacy event of the year and crasher spots are limited and coveted. We're looking for the brightest talent and those who are passionate about serving others through cooperative finance. Crashing the GAC has positively impacted hundreds of emerging professionals.

Crashers receive free conference registration from CUNA. Travel, lodging, and food costs are the responsibility of the Crasher and their credit union. The MnCU Foundation’s GAC Scholarship or Professional Development Grant may be used to supplement the cost.  
​
Submit your application by 11:59PM CST on Friday, December 2.
