You'll have to check your bylaws and any other applicable rules or laws.

RONR gives a president no such authority.

This appears to be an administrative question, not a parliamentary one. Check your rules for the powers the president has.

I assume that by "President" you mean the board "chair", elected by the credit union board from the members of the board. There are very specific, mandated by law, bylaws provisions that govern credit unions. There are also differences between federal and state chartered credit unions. Review all those documents.

The "president" or "board chair" of a credit union almost certainly has no unilateral power to do anything, unless authorized by the board itself.

In some cases, the term "president" of a credit union can mean the paid employee of the credit union, which is a completely different position. This type "president" often has the power to hire and fire, as delegated by the board.
