However, you do not have to include growth fund money in the calculation of your credit union’s capital requirements. This is because growth fund money will inflate your credit union’s total assets and you could struggle to meet the capital requirements if you included them. This is a ‘modification’ to our rules on capital, which only applies for your capital calculation and has no impact on other reporting. You have to apply to us to use this modification to our rules.
