unions in accordance with the Corporation's regulatory oversight framework to promote the safety and
soundness of credit unions and the Alberta credit union system. This involves assessing and monitoring
the quality of a credit union's governance and risk management practices for each of the credit union's
significant activities and monitoring the liquidity, capital, and earnings positions/requirements of each
