Agency Information Collection Activities: Comment Request, 30494 [05-10484]

Download as PDF 30494 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 101 / Thursday, May 26, 2005 / Notices income to a transaction involving a member. For example, some sales representatives may have generated sales that occurred before the representative joined the brokerage arrangement. These representatives may bring with them a stream of trailer income that cannot now be associated with any particular person or is not otherwise attributable to members of the credit union. A similar situation may arise in brokerage arrangements involving multiple credit unions working with one broker and sales made to members of the various credit unions. To address these situations, NCUA will allow a credit union in a third party brokerage arrangement to accept a de minimus amount of income that is not directly attributable to sales to its members. In this context, de minimus means that the ratio of income not directly attributable to members to the total gross income the credit union receives under the arrangement cannot exceed five percent. A similar issue may arise if a credit union pays expenses associated with the sales of nondeposit investments. NCUA will allow a credit union in a third party brokerage arrangement to pay a de minimus amount of expenses associated with the sale of nondeposit investments to nonmembers. In this context, de minimus means that the ratio of nonmember sales expenses paid by the credit union to the total expenses paid by the credit union under the arrangement cannot exceed five percent.
