HOEPA Benchmarks
10/28/2002
We are still struggling with HOEPA. None of us wants to originate HOEPA loans but if we do, we have the disclosures ready to issue the borrower (3 days prior). Is anyone aware of how many or what percentage of a bank's portfolio can be identified as HOEPA loans before the bank is viewed unfavorably by the regulators and/or Community Groups? Has a benchmark been published or discussed somewhere? Any ideas?

I find very little about lending with respect to this particular law. If we decline the loan in this case, how do we word the decline, and would it be included on the AA notice or done separately?
