Regulation and Supervision

Pine Federal Credit Union is chartered under federal law. Federally chartered credit unions are regulated by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), an independent agency of the U.S. Government. NCUA's three board members are nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate. NCUA administers the Federal Insurance Fund (NCUSIF), which covers all federal credit unions and most state chartered credit unions. No taxpayer money is used for regulating and overseeing federal credit unions, as all activities of NCUA and the NCUSIF are funded by credit unions. It is worth mentioning that not one cent of taxpayer money has ever been lost on a federally insured credit union.
