GeoDataVision announces online Free 2022 Tract Income Class maps
Dear Banker, Everyone has been inquiring about the new 2022 census tracts and their income classifications. The FFIEC as of this date (June 29, 2022) has yet to post the 2022 tract income classes on its geocoding website (although it does allow geocoding to the tract identity). GeoDataVision has now created an online 2022 Census Tract income class map that allows users to enter an address and identify the tract in which a record is located and the 2022 tract income class. For anyone interested in accessing this geocoding opportunity please visit: GeoDataVision 2022 Tract Income Class Map

🔥🔥New CRA NPR May be a Double-Whammy for banks🔥🔥
As I continue to review the 2022 CRA NPR I am recognizing more and more potential problems for bankers if the Rule is adopted as proposed. Today I am going to briefly comment on what I call the “Double Whammy” for banks subject to the new proposed Retail Lending Test. What do I mean?The NPR proposes that banks be evaluated under the Retail Lending Test not only in their traditional “Facility-Based Assessment Areas” but in new “Retail Lending Assessment Areas” and “Outside Areas” too. This is one of the most radical provisions in the NPR. It means that bank lending outside of the branch assessment areas will be subject to scrutiny for the first time ever – and it can…

2022 CRA NPR: A 5‐Alarm Fire in the Making for Banks
Register for the webinar Dear Banker, Readers and reviewers of the 2022 joint CRA NPR issued by the bank regulators on May 5 may be overwhelmed by the long (679 pages) and complex proposed rule-making document. Just trying to grasp the proposal is a daunting task. For sure, the NPR does contain some overwhelming changes including bank sizes, assessment area delineation rules, deposit reporting for very large banks, and the application of new tests. It takes a while to absorb the number and magnitude of the changes within the proposal. But buried in the document are some tables developed by…

Community Development Lending Reports
One of the most important CRA responsibilities for Intermediate-Small Banks and Large Banks is “Community Development Lending”. But while Community Development Lending is critically important, there is very little information available about the Community Development Loan Market. The most valuable data publicly available is the annual Community Development file released by the FFIEC. But anyone familiar with the FFIEC “CRA Data Products” knows that capturing the information for any given market is all but impossible. GeoDataVision has captured all the 2016 reported Community Development and Consortium Lending for the entire country and has prepared the data in extremely useful and…

Risk Management Guidance for Higher Loan- to-Value Lending in Communities Targeted for Revitalization
On February 9, at the 2016 CRA Conference in Los Angeles the Comptroller of the Currency, Thomas Curry, announced a draft of a soon-to-be-published proposal to encourage banks to help revitalize “targeted” neighborhoods by engaging in higher loan-to-value mortgages. The OCC recognizes that banks and other parties have expressed concern that depressed housing values in certain distressed communities in the United States inhibit mortgage lending in these communities. One way in which banks can support revitalization efforts in distressed communities is by offering mortgage products for purchasing, or purchasing and rehabilitating, one- to four-unit residential properties where the loan amount…

Computer-Generated Maps for Bank Compliance and Market Analysis
Visualize your market! Computer-generated maps are an exciting opportunity for banks to literally see their markets as never before. It’s one thing to examine a table of the mortgage market in Bridgeport Connecticut and it’s another thing to see a map of the Bridgeport mortgage market. Map 1 Bridgeport CT HMDA Mortgage Market A table of the data may identify volume and tract numbers but it’s very difficult to visualize exactly where the activity is located. A map presents a picture that allows the viewer to recognize the geographic dispersion of loans, deposits, branches, etc. The above map reveals there…

Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA’s) and Metro Divisions are important considerations in Assessment Area construction.
Many bankers are not aware that when they have AA’s within one of the eleven “mega” MSA’s they can designate any or all of the MSA as an AA. However, when examiners evaluate their bank’s CRA performance the procedure is to break down the AA into Metro Divisions for performance evaluation purposes. Bankers who want to mimic regulatory examination procedures to help them anticipate their examination experience may want to break up their AA into multiple AA’s when they are located within one of the 11 mega MSA’s. To help bankers who may be confronted with this issue GeoDataVision has…
