Federal Regulator Says Credit Unions Can Partner With Crypto Providers

“This includes facilitating member relationships with third parties that allow FICU members to buy, sell, and hold various uninsured digital assets with the third-party provider outside of the FICU,” the statement from the NCUA read. The NCUA is a federal U.S. regulator that oversees credit unions, acting as a counterpart to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), which regulates national banks.
