Section 91.715 - Exceptions to the General Lending Policies(a) Credit unions may provide for the consideration of loan requests from creditworthy members whose credit needs do not fit within the credit union's general lending policies. A credit union may provide for prudently underwritten exceptions to its lending policies. However, the Board is responsible for establishing written standards for the review and approval of exception loans.(b) Each credit union establishing exceptions to its general lending policies shall establish an appropriate internal process for the review and approval of loans that do not conform to its own internal policy standards. The approval of any such loan shall also be supported by a written justification that clearly sets forth all of the relevant credit factors that support the underwriting decision. The justification and approval documents for such loans will be maintained as a part of the permanent loan file. Each credit union shall monitor compliance with its lending policies and individually report exception loans of a significant size to its board of directors.(c) Exception loans shall be identified in the credit union's records and their aggregate amount reported at least annually to the board of directors. The aggregate amount of all such loans shall not exceed 10 percent of the credit union's net worth.7 Tex. Admin. Code § 91.715
