ADCG on Privacy & Cybersecurity

The Perspective of NCUA Board Member Rodney Hood

Episode Summary

Jerry and Jody are joined this week by National Credit Union Administration Board Member Rodney Hood, who chaired the NCUA Board until early 2021. He made cybersecurity and data protection at credit unions a priority when he became NCUA Chairman in 2019 and he has spoken frequently about the challenges that credit unions face in coping with privacy law requirements and cyber threats. Mr. Hood, who served as Vice Chair of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC), has urged the importance of clear and consistent federal privacy compliance standards for all financial institutions in the face of an emerging patchwork of state privacy enactments. The Honorable Rodney Hood is a Board Member and immediate past Chairman of the National Credit Union Administration. He was the first African American to head a federal financial regulatory agency. Before assuming the leadership of NCUA, Mr. Hood served as corporate responsibility manager at JPMorgan Chase.
