Audit of the NCUA's Examination Hours

The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) Office of Inspector General (OIG) conducted this self-initiated audit to assess the NCUA’s examination hours. The objectives of our audit were to determine: (1) the NCUA’s effectiveness in establishing examination hours, and (2) whether the NCUA ensured proper regulatory safeguards remained in place to protect the credit union system, credit union members, and the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (SIF) while appropriately managing the examination burden on credit unions.
