Oregon Revised Statutes Chapter 723 § 723.156 — Exercise of powers of federal credit union

Exercise of powers of federal credit union. (1) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, in addition to the powers and authorities provided under the laws of this state, a credit union may exercise any of the powers that were available to a federal credit union as of January 1, 2022. At least 45 days before exercising a power under this subsection, a credit union shall provide to the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services written notice of the credit union’s intent to exercise the power. The notice must describe the power and specify the statutory or regulatory authority or other legal basis for the federal credit union power the credit union intends to exercise. (2) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, in addition to the powers and authorities provided under the laws of this state, a credit union may, after obtaining approval from the director and subject to any limitations the director prescribes, exercise any of the powers conferred after January 1, 2022, upon a federal credit union that does business in this state and that is subject to the regulations of the administrator of the National Credit Union Administration or the successor or successors of the administrator, or any of the powers conferred on a credit union that is chartered under the laws of another state and does business in this state, if the director finds that exercising the powers: (a) Serves the public and members’ convenience and advantage; and (b) Equalizes and maintains the quality of competition among credit unions chartered under the laws of this state, of another state and under federal law.
