Embracing Uncertainty: Redefining CRA Strategies Post-Injunction
You’ve probably heard that the new CRA rule has been put on pause. A federal judge in Texas issued a preliminary injunction against enforcing new Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) rules following a lawsuit by the American Bankers Association and other business groups.
So what happens now? Should you still plan on implementing the new rule come January 1, 2026? How can you ensure CRA compliance in an ever-changing landscape?
Nobody knows for sure what will happen next, but it’s important that you continue to support your current CRA program (and prepare for your next CRA exam) while still addressing possible regulatory change.
Watch this webinar to hear from CRA expert Linda Ezuka. She focuses on managing compliance risks associated with data integrity, engaging business units to support current and future compliance efforts, and how to identify and address lending gaps. This is your chance to gain valuable insights into the evolving landscape of CRA and prepare your program for the future.

The New CRA Rule: The Biggest Changes and Challenges You May Face
While there are some welcome changes in the new CRA rule, it will also bring many challenges and growing pains to institutions unprepared for complex changes and more rigorous standards.
Regulators have stated that the new rule will “raise the bar” when it comes to passing your CRA exam. And exam failure rates are estimated to increase by 10 times! This may sound scary, but there are steps you can take now to prepare your program for challenges and give yourself the best chance when the new rule takes effect (hint: some parts of the new rule start sooner than you think).
Watch this webinar to hear from CRA expert Len Suzio, President of GeoDataVision. Len will address the three biggest changes to the CRA Rule, as well as the biggest challenges you may face and how to overcome those challenges. We’ll discuss the types of assessment areas in the new rule, the new Retail Lending Test and how it will be applied, the Community Development Financing Test, and more.

Leveraging the Special Purpose Credit Program (SPCP) Framework to Serve Minority Populations
Have you ever heard of a Special Purpose Credit Program (SPCP)? SPCPs are authorized by the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) and Regulation B to help you meet the credit needs of disadvantaged groups and communities. Any bank or lender can create one, but SPCPs have to be backed up by a written plan, and the need has to be supported by lending data.
The new CRA rule states that SPCPs “can be a type of responsive credit program.” This is great news for CRA professionals, and now is the perfect time to learn about these programs and how to create one.
Join Kadince and FDIC representative Paola Diaz on January 31st at 12 pm CT. You’ll learn what an SPCP program is, how it benefits disadvantaged communities, and how to create one. If your community development efforts need a boost, you don’t want to miss this webinar. Register now.
