HMDA Compliance Alert: CFPB Proposes New Changes

On April 13, 2017, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau issued a much-ask-for proposal to clarify and facilitate HMDA compliance with the 2015 updates to the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act rule set to take effect next year. According to the CFPB, “The proposed changes would help financial institutions comply with the 2015 HMDA Final Rule by clarifying the information they are required to collect and report about their mortgage lending.”

“These changes are monumental to HMDA collection and reporting requirements and will require a substantial amount of planning to implement the new data fields,” stated Rhonda Wannemuehler, Executive Vice President of Regulatory Solutions. “The CFPB gave the industry about three years to become compliant to the updates released in October 2015 with most of the requirements taking effect in January 2018.”
