(B)The complex credit union is a qualifying complex credit union that has opted into the CCULR framework under § 702.104(d), is in the grace period, as defined in § 702.104(d)(7), and has a CCULR of 7.0 percent or greater.
(2)Adequately capitalized if:
(i)Net worth ratio. The credit union has a net worth ratio of 6.0 percent or greater; and
(ii)Risk-based capital ratio. The credit union, if complex, has a risk-based capital ratio of 8.0 percent or greater; and
(iii)Does not meet the definition of a well capitalized credit union.
(3)Undercapitalized if:
(i)Net worth ratio. The credit union has a net worth ratio of 4.0 percent or more but less than 6.0 percent; or
(ii)Risk-based capital ratio. The credit union, if complex, has a risk-based capital ratio of less than 8.0 percent.
(4)Significantly undercapitalized if:
(i)The credit union has a net worth ratio of 2.0 percent or more but less than 4.0 percent; or
(ii)The credit union has a net worth ratio of 4.0 percent or more but less than 5.0 percent, and either—

(B)Materially fails to implement a net worth restoration plan approved by the NCUA Board; or

(b)Reclassification based on supervisory criteria other than net worth. The NCUA Board may reclassify a well capitalized credit union as adequately capitalized and may require an adequately capitalized or undercapitalized credit union to comply with certain mandatory or discretionary supervisory actions as if it were classified in the next lower capital category (each of such actions hereinafter referred to generally as “reclassification”) in the following circumstances:
(1)Unsafe or unsound condition. The NCUA Board has determined, after providing the credit union with notice and opportunity for hearing pursuant to § 747.2003 of this chapter, that the credit union is in an unsafe or unsound condition; or
(2)Unsafe or unsound practice. The NCUA Board has determined, after providing the credit union with notice and opportunity for hearing pursuant to § 747.2003 of this chapter, that the credit union has not corrected a material unsafe or unsound practice of which it was, or should have been, aware.
(c)Non-delegation. The NCUA Board may not delegate its authority to reclassify a credit union under paragraph
(b)of this section.
(d)Consultation with state officials. The NCUA Board shall consult and seek to work cooperatively with the appropriate state official before reclassifying a federally insured state-chartered credit union under paragraph
(b)of this section, and shall promptly notify the appropriate state official of its decision to reclassify. [80 FR 66706, Oct. 29, 2015, as amended at 86 FR 72804, Dec. 23, 2021]
