2026 Legal Symposium

NASCUS will host the 2026 Legal Symposium on November 12–13 in New Orleans, bringing together agency general counsel, credit union counsel, and private practitioners from across the country. This new 1½-day event is designed to support professional development and meaningful dialogue around the legal issues shaping the credit union system. Through focused sessions and peer exchange, attendees will gain practical insight they can take back to their organizations. Beyond the sessions, the event creates space to connect with peers across regulatory agencies and credit unions, share perspectives, and build relationships that extend beyond the room. Attendees will also learn more about NASCUS Attorney Roundtables and how to stay engaged in ongoing legal discussions within the industry. This event will feature focused legal discussions including bond agreements and cyber insurance, developments surrounding stablecoins and digital assets, UCC update, best practices in third-party contracts, litigation trends affecting financial institutions, and regulatory developments. It also includes peer-to-peer exchanges to connect with attorneys from state regulatory agencies and credit unions.
