NCUA Quarterly U.S. Map Review Demonstrates State-by-State Differences
“Nationally, trends in the credit
union industry are generally positive,” said NCUA Board Chairman Debbie
Matz. “These state-by-state analyses will help credit union officials
easily see the various indicators of economic recovery in their state
and region.” The NCUA Quarterly U.S. Map Review provides this important
information.
The report of the industry’s 2012
second-quarter performance at the state level is now available, along
with graphics and tables, at http://ncua.gov/Resources/Documents/2012Q2MapReview.pdf.
States like North Dakota, New
Mexico, New York, Iowa, and Washington are among those where federally
insured credit unions are showing better-than-average performance across
several indicators. Others, like Nevada, New Jersey, and Hawaii, are
still grappling with local economic challenges.
NCUA’s Office of the Chief
Economist prepares and issues the review each quarter. The NCUA
Quarterly U.S. Map Review for the second quarter expands on the
information contained in the agency’s first such report issued in June.
The expanded second-quarter review provides state-level credit union
data and maps on key metrics like:
