[SS Fed] Home Mortgage Disclosure Act
Course Description
Congress enacted the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) in 1975 to discourage creditors from denying loans to qualified applicants because of the applicants' race, a practice also known as "redlining," and to encourage lending institutions to provide loans to the consumers in their communities. HMDA requires covered lending institutions to submit reports about their mortgage lending activities in order to help citizens and public officials determine whether institutions are serving the housing needs of the communities in which they are located and to assist public officials to determine how to best use public sector investments in order to encourage private sector investment.
This course provides an overview of HMDA, including important definitions, data collection and reporting requirements, and penalties for violations of HMDA.
