Revised “A Guide to HMDA Reporting: Getting It Right!”
Applicability to Community Banking Organizations: This guidance applies to all institutions supervised by the Federal Reserve, including those with total consolidated assets of $10 billion or less.
The Task Force on Consumer Compliance of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council recently developed a revised version of “A Guide to HMDA Reporting: Getting It Right!” (Guide). The updated Guide is intended to assist financial institutions in complying with the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA)1 as implemented by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (CFPB) Regulation C.2 This Guide applies to HMDA data that financial institutions are required to collect beginning on January 1, 2024 and must submit by March 1, 2025. The Guide provides helpful background information and an easy-to-use summary of certain key requirements, including those relating to institutional coverage, transactional coverage, and data collection, reporting, and disclosure requirements.
Reserve Banks are asked to distribute this letter to the Federal Reserve-supervised institutions in their districts, as well as to their supervisory and examination staff. If supervised financial institutions have questions about the guidance set forth in this letter, they are encouraged to contact the responsible Reserve Bank. In addition, questions may be sent via the Board’s public website.3
