British Columbia’s financial services regulator is launching a sweeping review that could result in major changes to the governance of the province’s credit unions.
Financial Institutions Commission superintendent Carolyn Rogers told The Globe and Mail that a task force will soon be appointed to examine the role of boards of directors in charge of credit-union co-operatives.
Unlike chartered banks, the people who use credit unions elect their directors.
