Share Insurance and Appendix

Section 343 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) \1\ provides that, on a temporary basis, the NCUA Board shall fully insure the net amount that any member or depositor at an insured credit union maintains in a noninterest- bearing transaction account. Although this insurance coverage is self- implementing, and therefore already in place, this proposed rule: clarifies the definition of the term "noninterest-bearing transaction account;" provides that this new insurance coverage is separate from, and in addition to, other coverage provided in NCUA's share insurance rules; and imposes certain notice and disclosure requirements. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
