CFPB Eases Up on HELOC HMDA Reporting
If you're a smaller HELOC lender, you'll probably be glad to hear that the CFPB updated its 2015 HMDA rules regarding established limits for HMDA applicability. The new rule temporarily (2018 and 2019) increases the reporting threshold limit on Home Equity Lines of Credit from 100 to 500, which should ease regulatory burden on smaller HELOC lenders. ICBA says that's great, but what about the "staggering number of data requirements"? [8/25/17]
