  1. Wonder if it would be possible to create an unofficial list of problem credit unions similar to what CalculatedRiskBlog.com does with problem banks?

  2. Didn't the FDIC announce that more than 700 banks are on its "troubled" list? Isn't the Bank Insurance Fund $21 billion in the red? in the hole? in deficit? Looks like another taxpayer bailout for the FDIC on the horizon to this commentor.

    Unfortunately, NCUA and most other credit union regulators are not making public enforcement actions against credit unions.
