Summary

[edit]
Description
English: NCUA official seal, enacted by the 45th President of the United States on December 11, 2017 under FCU Act guidelines.
  • The new design, which symbolizes NCUA’s “safety and soundness” mission, features the eagle and shield from the Great Seal of the United States—a move aimed at making it clear that the regulator is an agency of the federal government. The three blue stars above the eagle represent the three-member NCUA board.
  • Also, the agency’s name in white on a blue background on the crest of the shield matches the federal share insurance sign that all federally insured credit unions are required to display. The circle on the seal includes the agency’s name, as well as the year, 1934, in the lower portion of the circle — reflecting the signing of the Federal Credit Union Act and the creation of the federal credit union system that year.
  • In addition, the oak branch in the eagle’s left talon is symbolic of the NCUA’s “strength, honor, and longevity” in carrying out its mission of “promoting confidence” in the national system of cooperative credit. Finally, the agency said, the olive branch in the right talon is “symbolic of peace and prosperity, which demonstrates the vital role the nation’s credit unions play in fostering economic growth” by providing essential and affordable financial services to millions of Americans.
