McKissock Fair Housing, Fair Lending Practice Test

The CRA's record is used when evaluating which types of banking applications?

Mortgage underwriting standards Customer service training Employee compensation plans Bank mergers, charters, acquisitions, branch openings and deposit facilities

Correct Answer:

Bank mergers, charters, acquisitions, branch openings and deposit facilities

Explanation:

The key idea is that the CRA evaluates how a bank’s record of helping meet community credit needs affects regulatory decisions about changes to the bank’s presence and structure. The CRA is used when regulators review proposals that alter where and how a bank operates—mergers, charters, acquisitions, branch openings, and deposit facilities—because these actions can change the bank’s ability to serve communities, including low- and moderate-income areas. Internal lending policies like mortgage underwriting standards are separate policy decisions, and customer service training or employee compensation plans are not the kinds of regulatory actions CRA reviews in this context.
