The Compliance 911 Show

The OCC is retracting its 2020 CRA Rule and it is expected the Agency will join the FDIC and the Fed when they issue a new joint notice of proposed rule-making for CRA during 2021. So what might the "new modern" CRA look like? There's plenty of insight to be gained by looking at the soon to be retracted OCC Rule and the CRA ANPR published by the Fed late in 2020. The CRA rules regarding CRA Assessment Areas are sure to be changed with the potential to add new "deposit-based" assessment areas. Bank's are likely to be required to geocode deposits and to report more details about their community development activities - and these are only a few of the changes regulators have indicated are coming down the pike. Join Len Suzio of GeoDataVision and Dean Stockford of M&M Consulting to learn more of about the CRA surprises that are heading your way during 2022.

In this podcast CRA expert, Len Suzio talks about the growing number of banks that fail to pass the Assessment Area ratio test and the negative implications for their entire CRA performance rating. More and more community banks are adopting regional and in some cases, national loan markets seriously diluting the ratio. Examiners' CRA manuals state that a bank cannot be rated "satisfactory" with less than 50% of their loans within their Assessment Areas. Learn about what this means and how to address the problem should your bank be pursuing a similar non-traditional marketing strategy.
