Training Overview

Build a Better CRA Program. Discover new resources and best practices.

Now is the ideal time to update your institution’s CRA program. You must meet increasing regulatory scrutiny as the Biden administration strives to ensure banks and credit unions meet their obligations to support low- and moderate-income (LMI) communities.

Your CRA program creates a context for your financial institution’s lending activities, driving the overall CRA rating. Small, midsize, and large banks must all have CRA programs that include lending strategies, review practices, regular monitoring, and oversight delegation.
