In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NCUA Board (Board) is issuing this interim final rule to provide credit unions with greater access to liquidity to help ensure they remain operational throughout the crisis. This rule will make it easier and more attractive for credit unions to join the NCUA's Central Liquidity Facility (Facility). In addition, this rule makes several amendments to conform to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act).
