Credit unions likely will have to pay an additional charge of about $1 billion this fall to fortify their version of the deposit insurance fund, the National Credit Union Administration announced.
To bolster the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, the deposit premium to be levied on credit unions will be an estimated 15 basis points, or 0.15% of assets, the NCUA said. The premium is expected to be voted on at the NCUA board's September meeting.
The premium is separate from a $1 billion payment credit unions will make this year as a result of two corporate credit union failures.
