Administrative Orders

Administrative Orders are formal enforcement orders issued by the NCUA pursuant to Section 206 of the Federal Credit Union Act (12 U.S.C. § 1786). Generally, the NCUA issues Administrative Orders when it finds that a credit union or persons affiliated with a credit union have violated a law, rule or regulation, breached a fiduciary duty, or engaged in an unsafe or unsound practice.

The three most common orders issued by the NCUA include:

  • An Order to Cease and Desist, which requires an institution or individual to take action (or refrain from taking action), including making restitution;
  • An Order of Prohibition, which prohibits an individual from ever working for a federally insured financial institution; and
  • An Order Assessing Civil Money Penalties, which requires an institution or individual to pay an assessed penalty amount.

Prior to the issuance of an Administrative Order, the Federal Credit Union Act provides due process rights, which include the ability to have an administrative hearing before the Office of Financial Institution Adjudication, and to appeal the agency's decision to issue an order to the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

The NCUA also issues Notices of Prohibition to individuals under Section 205(d) of the Federal Credit Union Act (12 U.S.C. § 1785(d)). The notice advises an individual convicted of a criminal offense of the prohibitions resulting from their conviction. (Until recently the NCUA issued formal Notices of Prohibition, but in conformity with the other federal financial institution regulators, we are now issuing letter notices.)

Disclaimer: This platform is intended to provide access to the enforcement actions taken by the NCUA since 1991 in a searchable and downloadable format. It is not guaranteed to be comprehensive. The primary source for the enforcement actions are the NCUA's press releases and other official communications. The names of the individuals and financial institutions contained herein reflect the institutions' identities when the enforcement actions were finalized and do not necessarily represent their current identities.

This platform also includes notices issued by the NCUA since 2008 to individuals under Section 205(d) of the Federal Credit Union Act. Under the law, the prohibitions outlined in these notices may have expired and the individual might no longer be prohibited from holding a position at an insured credit union. Although the NCUA is making notices issued pursuant to 205(d) searchable and downloadable, users of this platform should conduct their own inquiry regarding the current status of any prohibition identified in this platform.
