Key Message
Despite the decreasing market share of banking institutions, the CRA continues to play a crucial role in ensuring access to mortgage credit for low- and moderate-income borrowers and neighborhoods. The analysis shows that while the overall share of loans to low- and moderate-income borrowers has declined, the share of loans for properties in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods has increased, particularly among community banks. This suggests that the CRA remains relevant in promoting equitable mortgage lending practices amidst a changing mortgage origination landscape.
