Title: Understanding NCUA's National Supervision Policy Manual (NSPM) and Examiner's Guide

Key Points:

• The National Supervision Policy Manual (NSPM) was developed around 2013 to create consistency across NCUA regions in exam processes and policies

• The NSPM has largely replaced the Examiner's Guide as the primary document for NCUA exam procedures

• The NSPM is currently on version 22 and is updated frequently

• Parts of the NSPM are redacted from public view, including sections on concentration risk thresholds

• The Examiner's Guide is now outdated in many areas but the reference sections can still be useful

• Job aids and questionnaires used by examiners in the MERIT system are not publicly available, reducing transparency compared to the previous AIRES system

• Key NSPM chapters for credit unions to review:
- District management
- Federal and FISCU program chapters
- Regulatory waivers chapter

• The podcast hosts express concerns about the lack of transparency around NCUA's concentration risk thresholds and exam procedures compared to other regulators

Guests: Todd Miller and Steve Farrar, former NCUA examiners

Host: Mark Treichel
