WASHINGTON — Two delegates from the Maryland & D.C. Credit Union Association, through the World Council of Credit Unions, have returned from Nicaragua after sharing ideas with the fledgling credit union system there on governance.
John Link, treasurer of Agriculture Federal Credit Union, and Michael DiGennaro, a member of Federal Reserve Board Federal Credit Union's nominating committee, spent three days visiting credit unions and working with the Central Service Organization of Nicaragua (CSO) to devise a system to help credit unions recruit and nominate qualified candidates.

The ideas were then presented to Nicaraguan credit unions.
