    Abstract: The Federal Credit Union Act (at 12 U.S.C. 1761(b)(2))

adequate fidelity coverage for officers and employees having custody of 
or responsibility for handling funds.
    The regulation contains a number of reporting requirements where a 
credit union seeks to exercise flexibility under the regulations. These 
requirements enable NCUA to monitor the FCU's financial condition for 
safety and soundness purposes and helps to assure that FCUs are 
properly and adequately protected against potential losses due to 
insider abuse such as fraud and embezzlement.
