NAFCU, FHFA meet to discuss CDFI, mortgage credit pilot programs, more
NAFCU staff Tuesday met with FHFA Acting Director Sandra Thompson to discuss programs more targeted towards purchasing mortgages from community development financial institutions (CDFIs) to help underserved borrowers and first-time homebuyers, allowing credit unions the ability to better support these communities. NAFCU President and CEO Dan Berger, Senior Vice President of Government Affairs Greg Mesack, Vice President of Regulatory Affairs Ann Kossachev, and Regulatory Affairs Counsel Aminah Moore were in attendance at the meeting.
The group also discussed the association’s recommendation for the FHFA to consider pilot programs to expand access to mortgage credit for low- and moderate-income individuals, such as a wealth-building loan program that provides a safer path to homeownership for underserved borrowers. The association has encouraged the agency to assist the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) in increasing opportunities to help underserved individuals purchase homes.
In addition, the group discussed trends in credit union mortgage lending as well as climate-related risks for credit unions.
The association remains engaged with the FHFA to ensure credit unions are able to provide exemplary mortgage and lending services to consumers.

[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.
