2009-04-17 | Lei Complementar 130/2009Added
The law subjects credit cooperatives and their service confederations to this Complementary Law, to the National Financial System legislation, and to the applicable cooperative statutes, while prohibiting mixed cooperatives with a credit section. It restricts the capture of resources and the granting of credit and guarantees to members, municipalities, other financial institutions and occasional corporate resources, and authorizes the provision of other financial services to non‑members under specific exceptions. Governance rules are established, including mandatory or optional boards of directors and audit councils, term limits of up to four years for directors and three years for auditors, and prohibitions on holding simultaneous positions in related entities; it also sets rules for capital‑quota restitution, surplus distribution, loss allocation, and the management of official or guarantee funds. The National Monetary Council (CMN) is empowered to issue further regulations on authorization, prudential requirements, and the conditions for shared‑resource credit operations and guarantee‑fund assignments.
