This is the day that every credit union dreads – the day you receive notice that your member has filed bankruptcy. Now what do you do? This webinar explains the actions that your credit union must take to protect the credit union’s interests, and the actions that are prohibited. We will examine the steps (and pitfalls) that credit unions should know regarding Chapters 7, 11 and 13 of the Bankruptcy Code. This webinar will focus on the basics, but will also serve as a good refresher for those who are familiar with the bankruptcy process.
