In Brief: Early June Liquidation For Puerto Rican Center

ATLANTA - The National Credit Union Administration will begin liquidating Puerto Rico's corporate credit union in early June, said Tim McCollum, the agency's southeastern regional director.

The dissolution will not cause a loss for any of the 203 members of the $56 million-asset liquidity center, nor will it require assistance from the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund.

The NCUA seized Federacion de Cooperativas last September after the institution flouted orders to rein in operating costs.

Although Federacion is covered by the insurance fund, most of its members are insured by Prosad, an ailing Puerto Rico insurer.
