SUMMARY:Understanding the Community Reinvestment Act Modernization Proposal
DESCRIPTION:On July 12\, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York will host a virtual event to educate the public on an interagency proposal to modernize regulations implementing the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). The CRA is a landmark law that requires the Federal Reserve Board and other federal banking regulators to encourage financial institutions to help meet the credit needs of the communities where they do business\, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. The last significant interagency update to CRA regulations was in 1995. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nAt this event\, hosted in partnership with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC)\, representatives from the New York Fed and the Federal Reserve Board will provide an overview of the proposal and answer pre-submitted questions about the proposed updates to CRA regulations. \n\n\n\nThe Federal Reserve Board\, the FDIC\, and the OCC issued a joint proposal on May 5\, 2022 that would\, among other things\, expand access to credit\, investment\, and basic banking services in low- and moderate-income communities\, adapt to changes in the banking industry\, and provide greater clarity\, consistency\, and transparency. The agencies are currently requesting public comment on their joint proposal. \n\n\n\nFor more information on the proposal or to submit a comment\, please visit the Federal Reserve Board’s webpage on the proposed rulemaking. The deadline for submitting comments is August 5\, 2022. \n\n\n\nPresented by

SUMMARY:Exploring the Racial Wealth Gap: The Contributions of Redlining and Blockbusting
DESCRIPTION:Join the Chicago Fed Economic Mobility Project’s virtual event\, Exploring the Racial Wealth Gap: The Contributions of Redlining and Blockbusting\, on Tuesday\, July 12\, 2022\, from 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm CT (2:00 pm to 3:30 pm ET)\, when we will explore the disparate impacts of redlining and blockbusting on the current state of racial wealth inequality. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nBlack people in the United States have\, on average\, lower earnings\, higher unemployment rates\, lower rates of homeownership\, and less access to traditional banking services—all factors that contribute to economic disparities between their households and White households. Racially discriminatory housing practices\, including redlining and blockbusting\, contributed to unequal homeownership rates between Black and White Americans in the twentieth century\, with the effects still being felt today. Considering the importance of homeownership in building wealth\, we will illustrate how these practices have contributed to the racial wealth gap. \n\n\n\nThe event will include the following: \n\n\n\nOverview of the Racial Wealth Gap and Contributing FactorsKristen Broady\, senior economist\, economic advisor and Director of the Economic Mobility Project\, Chicago Fed \n\n\n\nThe Effects of Redlining Maps on the Long-Run Trajectories of NeighborhoodsDaniel Aaronson\, Senior Vice President and Associate Director of Research\, Chicago Fed \n\n\n\nBlockbusting and the Challenges Faced by Black Families in Building Wealth Through Housing in the Postwar United StatesDaniel Hartley\, Senior Economist\, Chicago Fed \n\n\n\nPanel Discussion: Factors Contributing to the Racial Wealth GapModerator: Natalie Y.

SUMMARY:Voices of CDFIs\, MDIs\, and LICUs: A Listening Session on CRA Proposed Rulemaking
DESCRIPTION:Cara Ewing/Minneapolis Fed\n\n\n\nThe Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis invites you to a July 14\, 2022\, virtual discussion and listening session on how Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) proposed rulemaking could more effectively address the investment and credit needs of community development financial institutions (CDFIs)\, minority depository institutions (MDIs)\, and low-income credit unions (LICUs). \n\n\n\nYour feedback on the modernization process will help us ensure that regulatory changes lead to a more effective CRA. We encourage you to voice your comments and questions about the modernization proposal during this important conversation. You are also welcome to provide written comments about the proposal at any time before August 5\, 2022. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\nMichou Kokodoko\, Project Director\, Community Development and Engagement\, Minneapolis Fed \n\n\n\nMichael Grover\, Assistant Vice President\, Community Development and Engagement\, Minneapolis Fed \n\n\n\nMolly Majerle\, Supervisory Examiner\, Minneapolis Fed \n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n10:00 am | Welcome \n\n\n\n10:05 am | A primer on the CRA Molly Majerle\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis   \n\n\n\n10:20 am | Highlights of CDFI-\, MDI-\, and LICU-related provisions in the CRA Notice of Proposed RulemakingMichou Kokodoko\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis  \n\n\n\n10:35 am | Audience discussion of key issues relating to CDFIs\, MDIs\, and LICUs \n\n\n\nFacilitated by Michou Kokodoko and Michael Grover\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis \n\n\n\nFrom the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking:    \n\n\n\n\nShould the agencies [the Federal Reserve\, OCC\, and FDIC] also include in the MDI definition insured credit unions considered to be MDIs by the National Credit Union Administration? Should the agencies consider activities undertaken by an MDI or WDI [women’s depository institution] to promote its own sustainability and profitability? If so\, should additional eligibility criteria be considered to ensure investments will more directly benefit low- and moderate-income and other underserved communities? Should the proposed factor focused on activities supporting MDIs\, WDIs\, LICUs\, and Treasury Department-certified CDFIs exclude placements of short-term deposits\, and should any other activities be excluded? Should the criterion specifically emphasize equity investments\, long-term debt financing\, donations\, and services\, and should other activities be emphasized? Should the agencies provide more specific guidance regarding what credit products and programs may be considered especially responsive\, or is it preferable to provide general criteria so as not to discourage a bank from pursuing impactful and responsive activities that may deviate from the specific examples? \n\n\n\n\n11:15 a.m. | Adjourn   \n\n\n\nYour feedback on the modernization process will help us ensure that regulatory changes lead to a more effective CRA. We encourage you to voice your comments and questions about the modernization proposal during this important conversation.

SUMMARY:What's Ahead for the Community Reinvestment Act: A Discussion
DESCRIPTION:A virtual session this July will explain the first major changes proposed in more than a quarter century to the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nHosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland\, the session titled What’s Ahead for the Community Reinvestment Act: A Discussion will take place from 2 to 3 pm ET on July 14. We encourage you to submit questions before the event\, and we encourage you to tell others you know who have an interest in the landmark law\, enacted 45 years ago to encourage banks to help meet the credit needs of their local communities\, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods\, in a safe and sound manner. \n\n\n\nFederal bank regulatory agencies—the Fed\, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation\, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency—jointly issued a proposal on May 5 to strengthen and modernize regulations implementing the CRA to better achieve the purposes of the law. \n\n\n\nBuilding on feedback from stakeholders and research\, the agencies invite public comment on their joint proposal\, which has the following key aims. \n\n\n\nExpand access to credit\, investment\, and basic banking services in low- and moderate-income communities. Under the proposal\, the agencies would evaluate bank performance across the varied activities they conduct and communities in which they operate so that CRA is a strong and effective tool to address inequities in access to credit. The proposal would promote community engagement and financial inclusion. It would also emphasize smaller-value loans and investments that can have high impact and be more responsive to the needs of LMI communities. \n\n\n\nAdapt to changes in the banking industry\, including internet and mobile banking. The proposal would update CRA assessment areas to include activities associated with online and mobile banking\, branchless banking\, and hybrid models. \n\n\n\nProvide greater clarity\, consistency\, and transparency. The proposal would adopt a metrics-based approach to CRA evaluations of retail lending and community development financing\, which includes public benchmarks\, for greater clarity and consistency. It also would clarify eligible CRA activities\, such as affordable housing\, that are focused on LMI\, underserved\, and rural communities. \n\n\n\nTailor CRA evaluations and data collection to bank size and type. The proposal recognizes differences in bank size and business models. It provides that smaller banks would continue to be evaluated under the existing CRA regulatory framework with the option to be evaluated under aspects of the new proposed framework. \n\n\n\nMaintain a unified approach. The proposal reflects a unified approach from the bank regulatory agencies and incorporates extensive feedback from stakeholders. \n\n\n\nFor more information\, visit the Federal Reserve Board’s CRA Proposed Rulemaking website. \n\n\n\nComments on the proposal will be accepted through August 5\, 2022 \, via this website. (The July 14 virtual session will welcome Q&A but is not a channel through which we will formally collect input.) \n\n\n\nRegistration for the webinar is now available. \n\n\n\nPresented by

SUMMARY:Central Valley Affordable Housing: Increasing Housing Inventory for Communities of Color
DESCRIPTION:California is in the midst of a severe housing supply crisis\, resulting in rapid price increases for homes for sale and for rent throughout the state. Once sought after for its greater affordability\, many Central Valley communities have become unaffordable for low- and moderate-income households. About 60% of Fresno County renters are “cost-burdened”—meaning they spend more than 30% of their income on rent—with a disproportionate impact on Fresno’s majority minority population. Since 2017\, rent in Fresno has increased faster than anywhere in the country. \n\n\n\nThis webinar will highlight innovative finance and development strategies\, and engage in big ideas to meaningfully grow affordable housing supply in the Central Valley. Participants will also connect with stakeholders throughout the Valley to foster Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) partnerships to expand creative strategies to increase affordable housing development\, particularly in majority minority communities. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend\n\n\n\nCommunity stakeholders such as CDFIs\, housing developers\, affordable housing organizations\, bankers (CFOs\, lending officers\, CRA officers\, community development managers/directors)\, and government agencies engaged in the development of affordable housing. \n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\nThis event is hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco\, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation\, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.
