Walters Named NCUA Deputy Executive Director 

February 23, 2006, Alexandria, Va. -- The National Credit Union Administration Board approved the reassignment of Region IV Director Jane A. Walters to be NCUA deputy executive director, assisting the executive director in managing the daily operation of the agency.

“Jane Walters has been a tremendous asset to the agency.  Her skills and broad experience, particularly in program matters, will greatly assist me as the agency continues to address new and challenging issues,” Executive Director Len Skiles said. “Jane is extremely capable.  She is a proven leader who has demonstrated again and again that she has excellent management expertise. This headquarters post will enable Jane to use her myriad of talents.”

Walters has been serving in Austin, Texas, as regional director since May 2001.  Her career began with NCUA in 1981 as an examiner in Chicago, Ill. She was a problem case officer prior to becoming the director of Special Actions in Region II in 1987. Walters was named associate regional director of Region IV in 1990, and in 1994 she was appointed NCUA Controller.  Jane Walters has also served as regional director of Region II, the former Region VI, and the former Region V.

Ms. Walters holds a BS in Accounting from the University of Dayton and a MBA from Loyola University of Chicago.

The National Credit Union Administration charters and supervises federal credit unions. NCUA, with the backing of the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, also operates and manages the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, insuring the accounts of nearly 85 million account holders in all federal credit unions and the majority of state-chartered credit unions. NCUA is funded by credit unions, not tax dollars.
