Current through November 25, 2024
Section DFI-CU 54.01 - Purpose and scope

It is the purpose of this chapter to permit Wisconsin credit unions to make loans to their members secured by real estate in accordance with applicable state or federal rules, regulations, and statutes. This chapter is intended to assist institutions in the formation and maintenance of a real estate lending policy that is appropriate to the size of the institution and the nature and scope of its individual operations. Loans for which a lien on real estate is taken through an abundance of caution where the terms of the loan as a consequence have not been made more favorable than they would have been in the absence of the lien are exempt from the requirements of this chapter. The director may limit, restrict or prohibit a credit union from making any type, category, or classification of loan governed by this chapter if examination results indicate the credit union is conducting its business in an unauthorized or unsafe manner or is violating the provisions of this chapter.
