This week, CreditUnions.com looks at the NCUA’s corporate recoveries, mortgage market share, and lessons in leadership.
Here are four data points you can’t miss:
$1,003,029,479
Last week the NCUA, reversing five years of FOIA denials, detailed its payments of more than $1 billion to the attorneys who secured $4.3 billion in settlements from a lineup of Wall Street and international big banks that sold the corporate credit union system the kind of sometimes questionable securities that helped spark the housing crisis and Great Recession.
The NCUA said the attorneys worked on a contingency arrangement of 25% of recoveries. In this case, that’s roughly the equivalent of 250 attorneys each being paid $400 an hour for 2,000 hours a year for the past five years.
Even with that, questions as to the future allocation of the NCUA’s recoveries remain. To learn more, read Chip Filson’s latest NCUA Shows Nobody The Money, Except For The Attorneys.

2006
In late 2006, Jen Hogan was working as a radio station manager and ad sales rep in Lewiston-Auburn, ME when a local newspaper interviewed her for a monthly feature on young professionals. When asked about career goals in an interview, she responded marketing director.
Two months later, she heard from Community Credit Union about a job opening for a marketing and training coordinator. She got the job and later that year was named Young Professional of the Year. In 2012, Hogan became an executive vice president, adding deposits, loans, and collections to her areas of responsibility. In October 2015, she took the reins as president and CEO.
In Jennifer Hogan On Leadership, the CEO offers her view on adaptability, tough conversations, and industry needs.
