Both federal credit unions had been under agency control since October.

The NCUA on Tuesday liquidated two West Virginia credit unions that had been placed into conservatorship last month.

Agency officials said that they liquidated the O.F. Toalston Federal Credit Union of Logan, West Virginia, and the Mingo County Education Federal Credit Union of Williamson, West Virginia.

They explained the agency decided to discontinue operations after determining that the credit unions were insolvent and had no prospect for restoring viable operations.

The financial institutions were the fifth and sixth credit unions to have failed this year.

What Happens to Members?

Member deposits are federally insured by the NCUA’s Share Insurance Fund up to $250,000. The agency’s Asset Management and Assistance Center will issue correspondence to individuals holding verified credit union share accounts at the two institutions within one week.
