1071: A Brief Overview

Section 1071 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act sought to enhance transparency in small business lending. It mandated that financial institutions collect and report data on credit applications made by small businesses, including those that are minority owned and women owned. While the intent of the Final Rule amending Regulation B is clear—to promote fair lending practices—the implementation poses significant challenges for financial institutions.

The regulatory environment is continuously evolving which presents unique challenges and opportunities for financial institutions. One of the most significant developments recently is the Final Rule for Regulation B’s Small Business Lending Data Collection requirements (Section 1071). Jerod Moyer and his team at Banker's Compliance Consulting are at the forefront of guiding banking professionals and helping them navigate these complex changes.
