The proposal updates how CRA activities qualify for consideration, where CRA activities are considered, and how CRA activities are evaluated. It seeks to address the significant changes in the banking industry since the last substantive CRA updates in 1995 and 2005.\r\n<p><\/p>\r\nThe proposal includes provisions that are tailored to the unique needs of Native communities. These provisions reflect feedback that stakeholders provided in engagement meetings and roundtables convened by staff from across the Federal Reserve System, including staff from the Center for Indian Country Development, and in comment letters submitted in response to prior agency proposals. To ensure that the CRA-modernization process continues to reflect stakeholder needs, the three banking agencies now seek additional feedback on a number of points, including the following issues affecting Indian Country.\r\n<p><\/p>\r\n<a class=\"btn btn-primary btn-block\" href=\"https:\/\/www.minneapolisfed.org\/article\/2022\/cra-modernization-and-indian-country-banking-agencies-seek-feedback-on-new-rulemaking-proposal\" role=\"button\">More from Federal Reserve Bank Of Minneapolis<\/a>\r\n<p><\/p><div class=\"mt-1 mb-1\"><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8411603009680747\" data-ad-slot=\"6394965691\"><\/ins><script>(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});<\/script><\/div><P><\/P>\r\n<div class=\"h5-responsive sub\"><EM>3.

The CFPB has established, among other things, a method for survivors of trafficking to submit documentation to credit reporting companies that identifies any adverse item of information that resulted from human trafficking. The rule prohibits credit reporting companies from providing a report containing the adverse items of information.\r\n<p><\/p>\r\n\u201cToo many survivors of human trafficking find their financial lives in tatters with few places to turn to for help,\u201d said CFPB Director Rohit Chopra. \u201cThe new rule will help clear credit reporting roadblocks that survivors face as they rebuild their lives.\u201d\r\n<p><\/p>\r\nSurvivors often find that their credit reports reflect financial obligations and negative information that were the result of the financial abuse they endured, while being trafficked. Survivors and support organizations report that traffickers employ financial abuse as both a source of income and a method of control. After destroying their victims\u2019 credit history and racking up charges in their names, traffickers know their victims will be unable to find affordable housing, become employed, or access credit on fair terms for purchases such as buying a car.\r\n<p><\/p>\r\n<a class=\"btn btn-primary btn-block\" href=\"https:\/\/www.consumerfinance.gov\/about-us\/newsroom\/cfpb-helps-survivors-mitigate-the-financial-consequences-of-human-trafficking\/\" role=\"button\">more from Consumer Financial Protection Bureau<\/a>\r\n<p><\/p>\r\n<div style=\"padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/723047327?h=b90662db09&#038;byline=0&#038;portrait=0\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><script src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/api\/player.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div class=\"h5-responsive sub\"><EM>4.
