Under the FCU Act, FCUs have the express power to borrow from any source, limited to 50% of paid-in and unimpaired capital and surplus. 12 U.S.C. §1757(9). The National Credit Union Administration’s (NCUA’s) regulation on maximum borrowing authority implements this provision at 12 C.F.R. §741.2. The statute and the regulation do not restrict how an FCU can use borrowed funds.
