CFPB Releases Preliminary 2023 HMDA Peer Data
We have now released the Preliminary 2023 HMDA Peer Data. The CFPB released the "preliminary" 2023 peer data file on March 25th. For some reason, they release this data without the Transmittal File that tells us who each reporter is. RATA then has to download the file, link up the Transmittal information from last year based on the LEI number with any institutions that match, and then look up any institution's LEI info on the ones that don't match. This year that happens to be about 500 institutions that we have to look up manually. The number of lookups is higher than usual this year because they lowered the exemption thresholds and more institutions were drawn into submitting HMDA data than in previous years. Again, keep in mind this is not the official final version of the peer
Upcoming Comply RHS system maintenance
In preparation for the upcoming busy months of January and February, the Comply RHS environment will be down this upcoming weekend on Saturday, December 30th, for extended maintenance to update all installations to the new 23.01 version and roll out additional servers to handle the expected increased demand.
We do not expect any problems with the rolling out of new equipment, however, due to the nature of the process, we cannot give a firm estimate of time the system will be down, but don't expect it will be more than one work day.
FFIEC Releases CRA Peer, Performance Evaluation and Market Share Data
The CRA Peer, Performance Evaluation, and Market Share data are now available for use in Comply. The 2022 CRA Aggregate and Disclosure data, used for CRA Peer analysis, was released on Wednesday, December 20th. RATA has completed the process of converting the data for use in Comply. The name of this file is PEERCRA22 and will need to be manually downloaded from the RATA Support Site and imported into Comply, using the Import System Data function, as these files can be large and take some time to import. For this reason, we recommend that you only load the years of peer data you are actively using into Comply and remove older years' data when your analyses are completed. The CRA Performance Evaluation and Market Share data were also compiled and released. This data is used when running
