The Community Reinvestment Act is intended to
encourage depository institutions to help meet the credit needs of
the communities in which they operate, including low- and moderate-income
neighborhoods. It was enacted by the Congress in 1977 (12 U.S.C. 2901)
and is implemented by Regulation BB (12 CFR 228). The regulation was
revised in May 1995.
The CRA requires that each depository institution's
record in helping meet the credit needs of its entire community be
evaluated periodically. That record is taken into account in considering
an institution's application for deposit facilities.
A copy of an institution's CRA evaluation may
be obtained directly from the institution or Reserve Bank.
The federal bank regulators use the following
four performance levels to rate an institution's performance under
CRA:
| O |
= |
Outstanding |
| S |
= |
Satisfactory |
| NI |
= |
Needs to improve |
| SN |
= |
Substantial noncompliance |
