A corporate central credit union shall have all the powers, rights and obligations imposed upon or granted central credit unions under this chapter, except:

(1) It shall be exempt from the regular reserve requirements of ORS 723.631, but shall be required to establish and maintain a minimum capital to assets ratio as set by the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services by rule.

(2) It shall be exempt from the bond or letter of credit requirements of ORS 723.122, but shall be required to obtain and maintain a fidelity bond in accordance with any rules adopted by the director.
