2023 Compliance Trends: Staying Ahead in an Evolving Regulatory E...
2023 Tax Calendar
On Feb. 22, 2022, an interagency statement was issued reminding financial institutions they can establish special purpose credit programs to help meet the needs of specified classes or persons by the following agencies:
Special purpose credit programs, pursuant to the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Regulation B, allow financial institutions to consider a prohibited basis such as race, national origin or sex in extending credit. Although financial institutions are encouraged to explore opportunities to develop such programs, the agencies will not determine whether a program qualifies for special purpose credit status. Rather, questions about the programs should be directed to their regulatory agency.
If you have compliance questions related to your institution’s lending practices, please contact Doeren Mayhew’s regulatory compliance specialists.
