ALEXANDRIA, Va.-The NCUA Board recently promoted Ed Dupcak to director of the Region II office in Alexandria, Va., effective April 20, 2003. For nearly eight years, Dupcak served as the director of the Office of Strategic Program Support and Planning, and he was recently named to the concurrent position of president of the Central Liquidity Facility. An acting director for the OSPSP should be named shortly. As Region II director, Dupack will be responsible for coordinating examination and supervision of federal and state-chartered, federally insured credit unions in Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. “Ed Dupcak has provided innovative and significant leadership to this agency for a number of years and in several important capacities,” said NCUA Chairman Dennis Dollar in announcing the appointment. “The NCUA Board has the utmost confidence that he will provide Region II with the highest level of vision, professionalism and diligence in his new responsibilities as regional director.” In his 29 years with NCUA, Dupcak has served as acting executive director of NCUA and associate regional director of Region II. He joined NCUA in 1974 as an examiner in New York and moved to the central office in 1979 as a staff member of the CLF. Dupcak was an investment officer and director of Risk Management within the Office of Examination and Insurance. In April 1995, he was named director of the Office of Investment Services, predecessor to OSPSP, which was renamed in 2002 to reflect its expanded mission. Dupcak is a 1968 graduate of Syracuse University with a bachelor’s degree in economics. He received an MBA in finance and accounting from Long Island University in 1971.
