IDFPR Releases Second Draft of Proposed Illinois CRA Rules. The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) has released a second draft of its proposed rules implementing the Illinois Community Reinvestment Act (Illinois CRA) for Illinois-chartered banks, with a narrative document addressing major concerns raised in written comments and testimony. Changes from the first draft include a new requirement for banks to report the small business loan data to the IDFPR as reported under the CFPB’s Section 1071 Small Business Lending Data Collection Rule, a new Appendix C containing examples of community development activities, new language prohibiting examination fees from increasing by more than 5% annually, and more. The IBA is reviewing the proposal, and we plan to continue our ongoing dialogue with our state-chartered member banks and thrifts about the proposal. View the revised proposed rules and narrative document.
