Credit unions approaching the 12.25% Member Business Loan regulatory cap

Credit unions whose member business loan (MBL) portfolio is approaching the NCUA aggregate-cap threshold relative to total assets. CUs near the cap have limited headroom to grow business lending before triggering supervisory attention.

Q1 202639 institutions
39 institutions reported member business loans comprising at least 76.1% of their portfolio in Q1 2026, with FUNERAL SERVICE (IL) leading at 76.1%. VISION ONE (CA) and WCLA (WA) followed with 64.9% and 61.9% respectively.

Methodology

We rank credit unions whose member business loan (MBL) portfolio under the NARROW NCUA definition (non-real-estate-secured commercial loans, ACCT_400P) exceeds 10% of total assets (thresholds.minMbl = 0.10). This ranks the most exposed CUs by the narrow measure. Note: the 12.25% NCUA MBL cap (12 CFR §723) applies to the BROADER measure (ACCT_400A, which includes real-estate-secured commercial loans) — so a CU clearing this card's 10% threshold under the narrow definition may already be much closer to the broad-measure cap. CUs above the threshold have limited room to grow MBL exposure before triggering supervisory attention. MBL share is reported in call_report_cu_specifics.mbl_pct_of_assets, derived from the narrow member-business-loan balance over total assets on the NCUA 5300 call report. Sorted descending by mbl_pct_of_assets. Credit unions only (NCUA 5300); banks have no analogous regulatory cap.
