It wasn't the budget hearing industry stakeholders asked for, but NCUA Chairman Debbie Matz announced Friday she will host an open forum Oct. 30 to discuss that and other issues.

The event will take place from 10 a.m. to noon Eastern Time at the NCUA's headquarters in Alexandria, Va.

“Since the beginning of my term, I have held 18 Listening Sessions and 12 webinars where NCUA leadership heard from credit union officials, volunteers and other interested stakeholders,” Matz said. “I welcome further interactive conversations on topics which could include NCUA regulations, examinations, budgets and any other issues participants would like to raise. Previous sessions have generated ideas, which led to regulatory relief for credit unions and streamlined processes throughout the agency. I am looking forward to another productive face-to-face meeting with credit union stakeholders.”

The NCUA said in a release it will make online registration available soon.
