Amy B. Hunter has been the Director of Credit Unions for the Department of Financial Institutions since November 2018. She leads a top-notch division of professionals who regulate and oversee 48 state-chartered credit unions, ranging in asset size from $15 m. to $30 b. Of the 48 credit unions, 12 are CDFI’s. Prior to joining the division, she had a 20+ year career in gambling regulation, another highly regulated industry. During the pandemic, she encouraged her team to be “flexible and reasonable” and that approach has continued since.
Amy has a law degree from Seattle University School of Law and a B.S. in Sociology/Criminal Justice from Kansas State University.
