We created this checklist to support your focus on the most pressing issues faced by your bank and to spark critical conversations with key stakeholders within the bank to determine your path forward.
There are several operational and financial risks associated with the new proposed CRA rules. First, you’ll need to formalize our compliance documentation and map out your CRA framework. Taking a bird’s eye view of your CRA program from a compliance management system (CMS) standpoint will help you make sure you have proper oversight and integration.
You’ll also need to address your systems and vendor reliance to adjust to the proposed increase in reporting and performance analytics. Staffing turnover, the higher cost of talent, and additions to staff also need to be taken into careful consideration. There will be an increased cost of compliance within business units, and certainly within your CRA program, so it’s important to have conversations with executive management and key stakeholders.
Make sure your bank is adequately resourced to maintain CRA performance and increase the proposed provisions. Planning now will help you finish strong in the current regulatory environment and adapt to upcoming regulatory changes.
Download the checklist today and continue to explore the implications of regulatory changes.
