Subject: Community Reinvestment -- RIN 3064-AC50
The Coalition for Nonprofit Housing & Economic Development, a
membership organization which includes 73 nonprofit organizations,
opposes the FDIC's proposal to allow banks with assets above $250
million to be examined as small banks under the Community Reinvestment
Act. This policy would have a detrimental effect on lending, investments
and services in low-income and distressed neighborhoods.
