Equal Housing Lender Logo

Answered by: 

Question: 
The Q&A below in the InfoVault caught my attention. Where would I find the exemption for use of the EHL logo for national banks?<dir>Question: I am trying to find the required disclosures to include the following message on exterior signage "100% Financing Available, Low Down Payments and No Hidden Fees." Can you help? Answer: I don't believe any of the information provided in this signage triggers further disclosures. Refer to Section 226.16 of Reg Z (for open-end credit advertising requirements) and Section 226.24 (for closed-end credit advertising requirements). If this is a home loan promotion, you do need to include the Equal Housing Lender logo <strong>(<u>unless your institution is regulated by the OCC</u>)</strong>.</dir>
Answer: 

You won't. The other banking regulators have requirements for the use of the Equal Housing Lender (or Equal Opportunity Lender) logos. The OCC does not.
