NAFCU has submitted nominations for nine credit union representatives to serve on CFPB's Credit Union Advisory Council. The bureau will announce newly selected members in August.

The council has eight seats to fill this round. The NAFCU nominees include:

• Faith Anderson, senior vice president and general counsel at American Airlines Federal Credit Union (Fort Worth, Texas);
• Christopher Anuswith, vice president of risk management at ABNB Federal Credit Union (Chesapeake, Va.);
• Daniel Berry, CEO at Duke University Federal Credit Union (Durham, N.C.);

• Brian Vannoy, chief credit risk officer at Allegacy Federal Credit Union (Winston-Salem, N.C.); and

CFPB's CUAC has 15 members, all of them from credit unions with $10 billion or less in assets. Newly appointed members will serve two-year terms. The CUAC was formed under the Dodd-Frank Act to provide direct feedback to CFPB on its policy development, research, rulemaking and engagement functions.

Several NAFCU members currently serve on CUAC. Those appointed last August include Orion Federal Credit Union Executive Vice President and CFO Jason Lee (Memphis, Tenn.); Heritage Trust Federal Credit Union President and CEO James McDaniel (Charleston, S.C.); Kirtland Federal Credit Union President and CEO David Seely (Albuquerque, N.M.); and MariSol Federal Credit Union CEO Robin Romano (Phoenix, Ariz.).
