Congressional Bill Calls for RBC Rule Review

New bill would delay RBC2 and force the NCUA to determine whether risk-based standards are necessary.

By Michael Muckian | Updated on June 15, 2015

If passed, the bill would delay the finalizing and implementation of RBC2 and force the agency to provide more information on whether risk-based standards are even necessary.

The bill, named “The Credit Union Risk Based Capital Study Act of 2015” was introduced by Reps.
