Update to Interagency Policy Statement on Allowances for Credit Losses
The NCUA has released a revised Interagency Policy Statement on Allowances for Credit Losses. The revision removes references to Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs). This policy statement describes the measurement of expected credit losses in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 326 and includes processes for the design, documentation, and validation of expected credit losses.
The policy statement also addresses internal controls over these processes, the maintenance of appropriate allowances for credit losses, the responsibilities of boards of directors and management, as well as examiner reviews of allowances for credit losses. Read more here.
