Central Liquidity Facility
The NCUA Board has determined to change the methodology by which NCUA's Central Liquidity Facility (CLF) provides funding to credit unions needing loans. The CLF makes loans available to credit unions through the corporate credit union network, which is also involved in the servicing of the loans. The changes require modification to an existing agreement between the CLF and U.S. Central Federal Credit Union (USC) and a new assignment agreement between USC and the CLF. These changes will affect loans already funded and the way future advances by the CLF are administered. In accordance with the current NCUA rule pertaining to the CLF, NCUA is publishing notice of the changes in the Federal Register.
