L. 99–609, 100 Stat. 3475 (Nov. 6. 1986)). The Fund is used to support credit unions that serve low-income communities by providing loans and technical assistance grants to qualifying institutions. The programs are designed to increase income, ownership, and employment opportunities for lowincome residents, and to stimulate economic growth. In addition, the programs provide assistance to improve the quality of services to the community and formulate more effective and efficient operations of credit unions.

Affected Public: Private Sector: Notfor-profit institutions. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 773. OMB Number: 3133–0197. Title: Safe Harbor; Treatment of Financial Assets Transferred in Connection with a Securitization or Participation. Abstract: Section 709.9 clarifies the conditions for a safe harbor for securitization or participation and sets forth safe harbor protections for securitizations that do not comply with the new accounting standards for off balance sheet treatment by providing for expedited access to the financial assets that are securitized if they meet the conditions defined in the rule. The conditions contained in the rule will serve to protect the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF) and NCUA’s interests as liquidating agent or conservator by aligning the conditions for the safe harbor with better and more sustainable lending practices by insured credit unions (FICUs).
