The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) has released its\u00a0comprehensive report<\/a>\u00a0on the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLBank) system. CUNA engaged with the FHFA throughout the process on the benefits credit union members see from credit union membership in the FHLBank system, and the report contains several of CUNA\u2019s recommendations.<\/p>\nAccording to the FHFA, the recommendations in the report are designed to ensure that the FHLBanks are well-positioned to continue to deliver on their mission priorities.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe appreciate the FHFA undertaking a comprehensive review of the FHLBank System, and for reflecting on how the FHLBank System can best serve its members and their communities,\u201d said CUNA Deputy Chief Advocacy Officer for Federal Government Affairs Jason Stverak. \u201cWe strongly believe credit unions must have equal access to liquidity provided by the FHLBanks, and we look forward to working together with FHFA, the FHLBanks, and other stakeholders to make sure that the FHLBank System continues to meet the needs of its credit union members and their communities moving forward.<\/p>\n

- \n
- Recommendations to increase support for \u201cmission-oriented\u201d organizations including Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs).\u00a0<\/li>\n
