Explanation of the Credit Union Act
Explanation of the Credit Union Act
Description
Book Introduction
“Law is a language that captures living reality.”

This sentence is the most important principle we kept in mind while writing the 『Commentary on the Credit Union Act』.
While laws provide principles and standards, they require concrete interpretation and practical application to function properly in the actual operations of unions and central associations.
This commentary has been designed to address these needs.

The Credit Union Act is a core law that stipulates the overall legal framework, including the purpose of establishing credit unions and their central associations, organizational structure, business scope, and operating methods.
Accordingly, this book covers related regulations, including the Credit Union Act, enforcement ordinance, enforcement rules, articles of incorporation, and mutual finance supervision regulations, and also organizes the latest laws, case law, authoritative interpretations, and legislative examples.
We hope this will serve as a guideline that can be immediately applied in the field.

In particular, in a rapidly changing institutional environment, including the mandatory implementation of the local cooperative consignment election system and the comprehensive revision of the Saemaul Geumgo Act, an accurate understanding and consistent interpretation of the Credit Union Act are more important than ever.
This commentary goes beyond simple legal interpretation and serves as a standard to help both the central association and the union conduct their work with legal stability and predictability.
