4 NAFCU-member reps appointed to bureau's CUAC
The Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (previously the CFPB) on Friday announced the appointment of seven members – including four that are from NAFCU-member credit unions – to serve on its Credit Union Advisory Council. Last month, the bureau released a new CUAC charter that included membership changes.
The new NAFCU member credit union representatives appointed to the CUAC include:
- Arlene Babwah, vice president risk management of Coastal Federal Credit Union (Raleigh, N.C.);
- Sean Cahill, president and CEO of Southwest 66 Credit Union (Odessa, Texas);
- Christopher Court, vice president of accounting and operations at Service 1st Federal Credit Union (Danville, Pa.); and
- James Hunsanger, chief risk officer at Michigan State University Federal Credit Union (Lansing, Mich.).
The full list of appointees is available here.
In June, bureau Acting Director Mick Mulvaney announced a reorganization of the bureau's councils and advisory boards – including the CUAC.
The most significant change the bureau made to the CUAC was related to membership. While it will remain filled with employees of credit unions with $10 billion or less in assets, the council will only have six members (though seven were appointed by the bureau) that will carry out one-year terms. Previously, 15 to 20 credit union representatives sat on the council for two-year terms.

[02:27] Having a leader who can really communicate cyber risks and understand how ready that institution is to deal with cyber events is incredibly important. [05:36] We need to be talking about risk openly. We need to be documenting and really understanding what remediating risk looks like and how you do that strategically. [16:38] Governance, risk, compliance, and adherence to regulatory controls are all being looked at much more closely. You are also seeing other technology that is coming into the fold directly responsible for helping CISOs navigate those waters. [18:28] The reaction from the governing bodies is directly related to the needs of the position. They’re trying to help make sure that we are positioned in a way that gets us the most possibility of success, maturing our postures and protecting the institutions.
