The
new edition of the Guide will be especially useful because
it contains critical source documents as appendices, including:
-
the
Federal Reserve Board's Regulation C, which implements
the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act;
-
the
form and instructions for completing the HMDA Loan Application
Register;
-
the
form and instructions for data collection on race or national
origin and sex;
-
the
Federal Reserve Board's recently adopted Staff Commentary
on Regulation C;
-
state
and county codes for counties in Metropolitan Statistical
Areas (MSAs), together with MSA numbers, and a separate
listing of counties with populations of 30,000 or less;
-
addresses
and telephone and fax numbers for regional and main offices
of the Federal financial regulatory agencies and the U.S.
Bureau of the Census.
Other
helpful features are a flow chart depicting HMDA coverage
criteria and step-by-step guidance to completing the report
form.

FDIC-supervised HMDA-reporting institutions only. For others
