On October 15, 2015, the CFPB released a final HMDA rule to update the reporting requirements of Regulation C.  The 797-page rule will make sweeping changes to Regulation C and dramatically expand HMDA reporting and compliance obligations.  How will your financial institution handle the 110 data elements in the new rule?  There are potential fair lending implications – more data means more analysis to identify potential discriminatory lending practices.  The new coverage will include closed-end mortgage loans and open-end lines of credit secured by a dwelling.  There will be required reporting of 53 new data fields. In addition, the new rule will require larger HMDA reporters to report data quarterly, rather than annually.

What are the impacts and important changes?  Part 1 of this two-part series will address the road map for successful implementation for these sweeping changes.  You’ll learn practical tips for developing a strategy that will help you work smarter during 2017 and be prepared when the data collection begins January 1, 2018.

HIGHLIGHTS
What will the rules change?
More types of loans will be covered; the purpose test will be eliminated and the new rule will cover nearly all dwelling-secured loans

Product Features (points and fees, borrower-paid origination charges, discount points, non-discounted interest rate, interest rate, loan term, non-amortizing features, prepayment penalty, qualified mortgage, first draw information)
Identifiers (Universal Loan Identifier and Mortgage Loan Originator Identifier)
