Impactful Policy Frameworks
CFPB Rule on Payday, Vehicle Title, and Certain High-Cost Installment Loans (2017/2020)
This rule, though modified, primarily focuses on consumer protection from predatory lending practices by imposing ability-to-repay requirements and payment withdrawal limitations for certain loan types.
While not directly on traditional mortgages, its spirit of consumer protection and ability-to-repay scrutiny influences general regulatory expectations for all lenders, including mortgage, potentially increasing due diligence requirements on borrower income and debt.
HMDA Amendments (Various, most recently for 2018 data collection)
The Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) requires financial institutions to collect and report specific loan-level data about mortgage applications and originations to identify potential discriminatory lending patterns.
These amendments necessitate robust data collection and reporting systems, directly impacting LoanLogics' clients by increasing the need for accurate HMDA data capture and reporting features within platforms like LoanHD® to ensure compliance and avoid penalties.
Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) initiatives on affordable housing goals (Ongoing)
The FHFA sets annual affordable housing goals for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, encouraging them to support lending to underserved segments and for affordable housing preservation.
This policy pushes mortgage lenders and investors, including LoanLogics' clients, to expand their focus on specific loan types and borrower segments, potentially requiring technology solutions to identify eligible loans, track compliance, and perform due diligence on these unique portfolios efficiently.
