Credit Union Leagues appoints interim president
Here is news from the California and Nevada Credit Union Leagues:
Ontario-based California and Nevada Credit Union Leagues has selected a former president and CEO to serve in the interim as its leader.
David Chatfield will replace current President and CEO Bill Cheney starting on July 6th.
Cheney announced last month that he would be leaving the Credit Union Leagues for an executive position with Credit Union National Association (CUNA).
With 40 years of experience with credit union, Chatfield served with the California Credit Union League for 15 years. He also served as the president of the Nevada Credit Union League for nine years.
He also served on the National Credit Union Administration Board (NCUA) under Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush.
He is expected to serve as interim leader for several months. Concurrently, a Leagues search committee is conducting an extensive search for a permanent president and CEO. The committee plans to have a new leader already in office before the Leagues' annual meetings, scheduled for mid-November.
Chatfield first joined the credit union movement as a volunteer elected official in 1965. In addition to his work for the California and Nevada Leagues and the NCUA Board, he has also served with CUNA's Washington office, in field management for the CUNA Mutual Group, in management at the New York State and Alaska Credit Union leagues, in senior management at Alaska USA Federal Credit Union, and as executive director of The Filene Research Institute.
With headquarters in Ontario, CA, the California and Nevada Credit Union Leagues represent 360 credit unions in the two states.
More than 10 million Californians and Nevadans are credit union members. For more information, go to www.ccul.org.
