Executive Order 13816 of December 8, 2017
Revising the Seal for the National Credit Union
Administration
By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of
America, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Revision. (a) The National Credit Union
Administration Board has caused to be made, and has
recommended approval of, a new seal of office for the
National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), the design
of which accompanies and is hereby made a part of this
order, and which is described as follows:
(i) The eagle overlaid by the shield conveys the NCUA's role as an agency
of the Federal Government. The text, “NCUA,” in white on a blue
background on the crest of the shield is the core of the sign that
federally insured credit unions are required to display.
(ii) The three stars above the eagle represent the NCUA's three-member
Board, appointed by the President of the United States by and with the
advice and consent of the Senate.
(iii) The oak branch the eagle is holding in its left talon symbolizes the
NCUA's strength, honor, and longevity in carrying out its mission of
promoting confidence in the national system of cooperative credit.
(iv) The olive branch the eagle is holding in its right talon symbolizes
the peace and prosperity facilitated by the economic growth and access to
affordable financial services that the Nation's credit unions have long
provided to millions of Americans.
(v) The upper portion of the circle that forms the border of the seal sets
forth the agency's title, “National Credit Union Administration.” The
date “1934” in the lower portion of the circle reflects the creation of
the Federal credit union system by the Congress in 1934 and the long
unbroken line of Federal credit union regulation that evolved into the
NCUA.
(b) This seal is of suitable design and appropriate
for adoption as the official seal of the NCUA.
(c) I hereby approve this seal as the official seal
of the NCUA.
Sec. 2. Revocation. Executive Order 11580 of January
20, 1971 (Establishing a Seal for the National Credit
Union Administration), as amended, is hereby revoked.
Sec. 3. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order
shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:
(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or
the head thereof; or
(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget
relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.
(b) This order shall be implemented consistent with
applicable law and subject to the availability of
appropriations.
(c) This order is not intended to, and does not,
create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural,
enforceable at law or in equity by any party against
the United States, its departments, agencies, or
entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any
other person.
