NCUA Board Member Matz to Take Part in Grand Opening of N.C. Community Credit Union

Generations Community Credit Union
Wed., Jan. 15, 11 a.m.
123 West Main Street, Durham, N.C.

National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) Board Member Deborah Matz will make brief remarks at the grand opening of Generations Community Credit Union in Durham, N.C. on Jan. 15. Members of the media and public are invited to attend.

Generations evolved from the Henderson, N.C.-based Gateway Community Credit Union and will serve its 1400 members with branch locations in both Durham and Henderson. Generations is affiliated with the North Carolina Minority Support Center, a not-for-profit organization supporting the state’s community development credit unions.

“I’m so pleased to be able to celebrate this exciting time with Generations Community Credit Union and the community it serves,” said Matz. “I salute the work credit unions like Generations are doing in North Carolina and across the country, empowering their members with affordable financial services.”

A 23-year public service veteran, Matz is a member of three credit unions and resides in McLean, Va. with her husband and two children. Before her appointment to the NCUA Board, Matz was appointed by President Clinton as Deputy Assistant Secretary for Administration in the Department of Agriculture.

The National Credit Union Administration, governed by a three-member board appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, is the independent federal agency that regulates, charters and supervises federal credit unions. NCUA, with the backing of the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, operates and manages the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, insuring the deposits of more than 80 million account holders in all federal credit unions and the overwhelming majority of state-chartered credit unions.
