Assess whether notices match the actual decisioning reasons (7d6834)

SITUATION A bank with thin HMDA LAR quality cannot treat a SPCP that originated almost no loans to the intended class as incidental context on underwriting exception log by branch. CRA strategist must close notices match the actual from that extract under Fair Lending / Examination and Notices.

DECISION CRA strategist in a bank with thin HMDA LAR quality must choose Remove access or reverse the item / Temporary compensating control / Approve a documented exception / Hold using underwriting exception log by branch after a SPCP that originated almost no loans to the intended class.

HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. A SPCP that originated almost no loans to the intended class is noise around an already-controlled Examination and Notices process in a bank with thin HMDA LAR quality, given underwriting exception log by branch. 2. A SPCP that originated almost no loans to the intended class is the event in underwriting exception log by branch that forces Remove access or reverse the item for CRA strategist under Fair Lending. 3. Underwriting exception log by branch shows a one-file miss after a SPCP that originated almost no loans to the intended class, not a Examination and Notices program failure. 4. Underwriting exception log by branch cannot decide notices match the actual yet after a SPCP that originated almost no loans to the intended class; hold is the only Fair Lending close a bank with thin HMDA LAR quality can defend.

ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Flag any disparate-impact table CRA strategist cannot explain from underwriting exception log by branch. 2. Test a documented exception versus a pattern a bank with thin HMDA LAR quality must defend. 3. Match the adverse-action language to the facts in underwriting exception log by branch. 4. For this Fair Lending Examination and Notices file, read underwriting exception log by branch against a SPCP that originated almost no loans to the intended class and write the one fact that would move notices match the actual for CRA strategist.
