SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Bureau of Consumer
Financial Protection (CFPB or Bureau) is
issuing its fourth Fair Lending Report of
the Consumer Financial Protection
Bureau (Fair Lending Report) to
Congress. We are committed to ensuring
fair access to credit and eliminating
discriminatory lending practices. This
report describes our fair lending
activities in prioritization, supervision,
enforcement, rulemaking, research,
interagency coordination, and outreach
for calendar year 2015.
DATES: The Bureau released the April
2016 Fair Lending Report on its Web
site on April 29, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
[1]. Fair Lending Report of the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau,
April 2016
Message From Richard Cordray, Director
of the CFPB
When Congress established the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau,

the goal was to shine a light on unfair
and discriminatory practices in the
financial system. The legislation
specifically tasked the Office of Fair
Lending and Equal Opportunity with
this critical obligation, but our
commitment to finding and eliminating
these practices extends throughout the
Bureau. Indeed, ensuring fair and
nondiscriminatory access to credit goes
to the core of the Bureau’s mission:
Protecting consumers and promoting
openness in America’s financial
markets.
The past year has been especially
productive for the Office of Fair
Lending. In the mortgage market, they
teamed up with the Department of
Justice to resolve the largest redlining
case in history against Hudson City
Savings Bank (since acquired by M&T
Bank), which will pay nearly $33
million in direct loan subsidies, funding
for community programs and outreach,
and a civil penalty. In that case, which
arose out of a fair lending supervisory
review at Hudson City, the Bureau
found that Hudson City provided
unequal access to credit by structuring
its business to avoid and thus
discourage access to mortgages for
residents in majority-Black-andHispanic neighborhoods 1 in New York,
New Jersey, Connecticut, and
Pennsylvania. The Office of Fair
Lending also resolved a significant
discrimination case involving Provident
Funding Associates based on our
finding that over 14,000 AfricanAmerican and Hispanic borrowers paid
more in mortgage brokers’ fees than did
similarly-situated non-Hispanic White
borrowers. The Office also helped revise
the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act’s
Regulation C such that mortgage lenders
will begin collecting a more
comprehensive set of mortgage loan data
starting in 2018, which will allow
regulators, lenders, researchers, and the
public to better pinpoint and address
potential discrimination in the mortgage
market, among other important goals.
The Office of Fair Lending also has
continued to examine and investigate
indirect auto lenders for compliance
with the Equal Credit Opportunity Act.
Last year brought two noteworthy
results, with prominent consent orders
issued for American Honda Finance
Corporation and Fifth Third Bank. In
both matters, the Bureau alleged that the
lender’s policy of discretionary dealer
markup resulted in minority borrowers
1 ‘‘Majority-Black-and-Hispanic neighborhoods’’
or ‘‘majority-Black-and-Hispanic communities’’
means census tracts in which more than 50 percent
of the residents are identified in the 2010 U.S.
Census as either ‘‘Black or African American’’ or
‘‘Hispanic or Latino.’’
