Changes in the Evolving approach to redlining
In this podcast, Dean and Len discuss potential regulatory changes in 2025, particularly concerning the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) and Section 1071 of Dodd-Frank. Len outlines five ways regulations can change: congressional legislation, regulatory agency amendments, enforcement changes, litigation, and the Congressional Review Act. He predicts that legislative action is unlikely due to political gridlock but sees regulatory amendments, enforcement shifts, and litigation as probable paths for change, especially with the Trump Administration's focus on deregulation. Len critiques the 2023 CRA Rule for its complexity and rigidity in assessment areas, and he argues that Section 1071 exceeds congressional intent by mandating excessive data collection. Despite potential regulatory rollbacks, he warns that compliance remains critical since future administrations could reinstate stricter policies. He advises banks to maintain proactive compliance strategies to mitigate risks amid ongoing regulatory uncertainty.
