Press Release
For Use at 4 PM EDT

August 4, 1997

The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) today announced the
availability of data about 1996 mortgage lending activity in metropolitan areas and released
analyses of nationwide summary statistics regarding lending patterns.
The data reflect lending activity for more than 9,300 institutions covered by the
Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) that reported data to member agencies of the
FFIEC-the Comptroller of the Currency, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Office of
Thrift Supervision, National Credit Union Administration, and Federal Reserve System-and to
the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The 1996 data include a total of 14.8 million reported loans and applications, an
increase of 32 percent from 1995. They show an overall increase in the number both of
government-backed and o f conventional home purchase loans from 1995, with lending to
lower-income households up somewhat more than lending to higher-income households.
Taken together, government-backed and conventional home purchase lending to all racial and
ethnic groups increased from 1995. Lending to Hispanics increased 13.4 percent; to Native
Americans, 11.4; to Asians, 8.2 percent; to Whites, 8.1 percent; and to Blacks, 3.1 percent.
(See attached fact sheet and related tables.)

Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Office of Thrift Superv ision

-2By comparison, from 1993 to 1996, government-backed and conventional home
purchase loans have risen 55.6 percent for Hispanics, 52.5 percent for Blacks, 26.6 percent
for Native Americans, 15.3 percent for Asians, and 14.0 percent for Whites.
For conventional home purchase loans, taken by themselves, the denial rates continue
to vary among racial and ethnic groups. For conventional home purchase loans, 50.2 percent
o f Native American applicants, 48.8 percent o f Black applicants, 34.4 percent o f Hispanic
applicants, 24.1 percent o f White applicants, and 13.8 percent o f Asian applicants were denied
loans in 1996.
The disclosure statements underlying these and other summary statistics are now
available for public inspection at central depositories throughout the nation. The disclosures
include individual financial institutions' disclosure statements and aggregate data for each
metropolitan statistical area (MSA). (The location o f the central depository for an MSA can be
obtained by calling the FFIEC at 202/634-6526.)
The HMDA reports contain data about loan originations, loan purchases, and
applications that did not result in a loan; and they give information about three characteristics o f
applicants or borrowers: race or national origin, gender, and annual income. For loans relating to
property located in MSAs, as well as some loans relating to property located outside o f MSAs,
the reports identify the geographic location, usually by census tract.
The HMDA data also include information on loans that are sold, showing the type o f
purchaser o f the loan. Among other things, this information is used by the Department o f
Housing and Urban Development in assessing the performance o f Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
in meeting their legislatively mandated affordable housing goals.
The FFIEC makes HMDA data available in various formats, including paper, magnetic

-3-

tape, PC diskette, and CD-ROM. Tables showing the nationwide aggregates and key
demographic information for MSAs can be obtained in paper form. The raw data for all
individual loans and applications are available on CD-ROM, magnetic tape, and PC diskette. An
order form, with descriptions o f the various reports and formats available, is attached to this
release.
The FFIEC also provides data on mortgage insurance applications. Data from the
nation's eight private mortgage insurance (PMI) companies were compiled under the auspices o f
the Mortgage Insurance Companies o f America, and are available at individual PMI companies,
at the central depositories in each MSA, and from the FFIEC.

Findings from Analyses of Nationwide Summary Statistics
for 1996 Home Mortgage Disclosure Act Data
Fact Sheet (August 1997)

The following analyses o f nationwide summary statistics are based on data compiled
by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) for institutions covered by
the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act and Regulation C .’

The Data
For 1996, the FFIEC prepared 42,936 disclosure statements for 9,328 lenders, with a
separate statement for each metropolitan area in which the lender has an office (table 1). The
data reflect the lending activity o f 4,829 commercial banks, 960 savings associations, 2,311
credit unions, and 1,228 mortgage companies (267 o f these were affiliates o f depository
institutions and the remainder were independent entities).

Applications Received and Loans Made
In 1996 these lenders acted on 13.0 million applications for home purchase loans,
home improvement loans, and refinancings (compared with 9.9 million in 1995), and they
purchased 1.8 million loans (compared with 1.3 million in 1995). The total volume of
reported home loan applications and purchases (14.8 million) increased 32 percent from 1995,
primarily due to a 68 percent increase in the number of refinancing transactions. The increase
in refinancing activity was likely due to the effects of lower interest rates, particularly in the
early part of 1996.

Loan Programs and Changes in Lending Volume by Race and Income
Lending institutions tend to specialize in different types o f home loans (table 2). For
example, among home purchase loan originations, mortgage companies tend to do most o f the
government-backed lending. Commercial banks, on the other hand, do most of the home
improvement lending.

’ The FFIEC also has compiled insurance data submitted by the nation's eight private
mortgage insurance (PMI) companies under the auspices of the Mortgage Insurance Companies
of America. The data relate to application decisions made by the PMI companies during 1996,
and show 1.38 million applications for private mortgage insurance (approximately 1.13 million
for home purchase loans and 240 thousand for refinancings). The disclosure statements are
available from the individual companies, at the MSA central depositories, and from the FFIEC
in the same formats as the HMDA data.

-5Among applicants, some are more likely than others to apply for certain types of
home loans (table 3). For example, low- or moderate-income and middle-income households
are more likely to apply for government-sponsored home loans (26.7 percent, 29.5 percent,
and 24.8 percent, respectively) than are high-income households (12.0 percent). In addition,
Blacks and Hispanics (29.1 percent and 33.2 percent, respectively) are more likely to apply for
government-sponsored loans than are Asians, Native Americans, or Whites (11.9 percent, 12.5
percent, and 15.6 percent, respectively).
Taking government-backed and conventional home purchase lending together, lending
to all racial and ethnic groups increased from 1995 to 1996. Lending to Hispanics increased
13.4 percent; to Native Americans, 11.4; to Asians, 8.2 percent; to Whites, 8.1 percent; and
to Blacks, 3.1 percent (table 4).
Overall, conventional home purchase lending taken by itself was also higher in 1996
compared with 1995 (table 5), though conventional loans to Blacks decreased by 1.5 percent.
Conventional home purchase loans increased by 7.0 percent to Asians, 6.7 percent to Whites,
6.1 percent to Native Americans and 0.5 percent to Hispanics. Conventional home purchase
lending to households in all income categories increased from 1995 levels; lending to low- and
moderate-income households was up somewhat more than lending to higher-income
households.

Approval/Denial Rates
For conventional home purchase loans, the denial rates continue to vary among
applicants by income and racial or ethnic characteristics (table 6). For example, loan
applications filed by Native Americans, Blacks, and Hispanics were more likely to be turned
down than those submined by Whites and Asians. In 1996, 50.2 percent of Native American
applicants, 48.8 percent of Black applicants, 34.4 percent of Hispanic applicants, 24.1 percent
of White applicants, and 13.8 percent o f Asian applicants were denied conventional home
purchase loans. The denial rates for all racial and ethnic groups were higher in 1996 than in
1995, when denial rates were 41.4 percent for Native Americans, 40.5 percent for Blacks,
29.5 percent for Hispanics, 20.6 percent for Whites, and 12.5 percent for Asians.
Differences in the income levels o f the various racial or ethnic groups account for
some of the differences in denial rates among the groups (table 7). Other factors are more
important, however, since White and Asian applicants, in all income groups, had lower rates
o f denial than Native American, Black, or Hispanic applicants. The HMDA data provide
some information on the reasons for denial, with poor credit or no credit history most
frequently cited by lenders as the reason for denial of conventional home purchase loan
applications.

1. Includes both conventional and government-backed home purchase loans.
2. Includes loans reported by independent mortgage companies, which were not covered before 1993.
3. MSA median is median family income of the metropolitan statistical area in which the property related to the loan is located.
4. To more closely mirror the category definitions used in the Community Reinvestment Act regulation, middle income is defined as 80 to 119 percent o f MSA median income, and
upper income is defined as 120 percent or more of MSA median income. A category definition change shifts a very small number of loans from the range 100-119 to the range
120 or more and from middle income to upper income census tracts beginning in 1995.

HMDA/CRA DATA ORDER FORM - ITEM DESCRIPTIONS
•

•
•

Unless otherwise specified, reports using HMDA data are available beginning with 1990. HMDA data generally become
available by August of the year following the reporting year, and data through calendar year 19% are now available. Reports
using census data and the HUD Median Family Income Listings become available earlier in the year. Please refer to the HMDA
Assistance Line at (202) 452-2016 or email at HMDAHELP@FRB.GOV for the latest release of these reports.
There is a separate additional charge for each year, MSA, and/or institution requested
Charges for duplicate requests apply.

Aggregation Report: The Aggregation Reports of MSAs (340 for 1990; 341 for 1991, 1992 and 1993; and 329 for 1994), sorted
by MSA, are distributed as either hardcopy or on tape. Printed reports of MSAs range from 30 to 604 pages each, and average
about 60 pages. This report aggregates the mortgage and home improvement lending information for those institutions within an
MSA. It is in the same format as the disclosure statements; however, individual institutions cannot be identified.

The FFIEC has entered into an agreement with the Mortgage Insurance Companies of America (MICA) to compile data
on mongage insurance applications for the nation's eight private mortgage insurance companies. These data are available
beginning with data for the fourth quarter of calendar year 1993 and for calendar years 1994 through 19%. The FFIEC
makes the data available in formats similar to those for the HMDA data. The following items are available for MICA
data: Disclosure Statements (Item #001), Aggregation Reports (Item #002), the National Aggregate Report (Item #005),
MSA by MSA Report on the Disposition of Applications by Race and Income of Each Applicant (Item #006), LAR & TS
Raw Data (Item #102), Expected Reporter Panel (Item #103), PC Diskettes by MSA (Item #201), MSA Aggregate
Repons and Disclosure Statements on Microfiche (Item #301), and MSA Aggregate Reports and Disclosure Statements
on CD-ROM (Item #302). Because 1993 MICA data cover only the fourth quarter, the charge for the LAR & TS Raw
Data (Item #102) is $125. Subsequent years' data are collected annually, and therefore, charges do not differ from the
FFIEC data. Items other than the LAR & TS Raw Data do not have a reduced price for the 1993 reporting year. When
ordering items, be sure to specify the data type. The FFIEC data include those institutions required to report HMDA
under Regulation C, and the MICA data include those eight mortgage insurers reporting HMDA data as agreed upon with
the FFIEC.

Tape distribution is used in lieu of hardcopy as a convenience to those sites that can print the tape locally. This is a printimage
tape; therefore, the data cannot be manipulated.
For hardcopy distribution, enter the MSA number for each MSA desired on the report in the space provided on the form. If
additional space is required, use the back of the form. The charge for hardcopy distribution is $50.00 for each MSA requested.
(Item #002)
For tape distribution, all MSAs are included on the tape. Also, a listing is provided that shows the relative position and number
of pages for each MSA on the tape. Data are in EBCDIC and formatted as follows: record length = 166; block size = 24,900;
and record format = fixed block. Printing these records requires a printer featured for 166 character output. The charge
for
tape distribution is $500.00. (Item #101)
The hardcopy Aggregate item is also available for MICA data. These data are not available prior to 1993 (see above).
A Guide to HMDA Reporting: Getting it R ight: The guide was developed to assist those who prepare the HMDA report for their
institutions, and also contains an executive summary for management officials that explains the responsibilities of institutions that
are subject to HMDA. The guide is a comprehensive edition that provides a summary of responsibilities and requirements,
directions for assembling the necessary tools, and step-by-step instructions for reporting HMDA data. It includes information about
obtaimng data from the Bureau of the Census, and contains a listing of MSA, state, and county codes. Appendices include

Regulation C: the Instructions for Completion of the HMDA-LAR; Form and Instructions for Data Collection on Race or National
Origin and Sex; and the Staff Commentary on Regulation C. (Item #010)
Census (Geography O nly): This is the nationwide census data that can be used to verify HMDA/CRA property location
information. For 1995, the data contain valid MS A/State/County/Tract for HMDA reporting. For 19%, the data contain the valid
MSA/State/County/Tract-BNA combinations for HMDA/CRA reporting. These combinations include those State/County/TractsBNAs outside of MSAs that can be verified for correctness. The data do not include demographic data. Census data are distributed
on diskeue (for 1995 and 19%) and magnetic tape (cartridges or reels, for 19% only) at a cost of $50. Record formats and file
descriptions are included with each order. (Item #105)
Census Inform ation: This is the nationwide census data used as input to HMDA and CRA processing. Beginning with 19%, this
information combines HMDA and CRA data elements into one source. Data are distributed as a hardcopy (paper) report or on
tape. The hardcopy Census Tract Listing contains valid census listings and does not have demographic information. The 19%
listing and years thereafter includes all census tracts and BN As inside and outside of MSA boundaries. Data on the tape do contain
demographic information for each tract. Tape distribution is available on either reels or cartridges; file descriptions are included
with each order.
The charge for hardcopy distribution is $50.00 (Item #003).
The charge for tape distribution is $250.00 (Item #104).
The 1980 census tracts were used in processing 1990 and 1991 HMDA data; 1990 census tracts were used for processing data for
1992 and subsequent years; 1990 MSA redefinitions were used beginning with 1994 HMDA data. The census data distributed is
consistent with the HMDA year specified. For example, if HMDA year 1991 is selected, 1980 census tract data with 1991 MSA
definitions are issued.

Disclosure S tatem en t: The Disclosure Statement summarizes mortgage and home improvement lending information from data that
are prepared yearly by individual institutions. The Disclosure Statement is distributed in hardcopy at a cost of $50.00 for each
institution requested. (Item #001)
The Disclosure Statements are also available for MICA data. These data are not available prior to 1993 (see page 8).
Expected R ep o rter P an el: The Expected Reporter Panel is the universe of all institutions who were expected to report under
HMDA. The panel includes the name of the institution, the reporter ID and agency code, and the MSA number(s) o f the
metropolitan areas for which they were expected to report. The panel is captured from the database at the same time that the final
disclosure and aggregate reports are prepared for the Central Depositories. The Expected Reporter Panel is distributed in reel or
cartridge only at a cost of $150.00. A format description is also included with each order. (Item #103)
The Expected Reporter Panel is also available for MICA data. These data are not available prior to 1994 (see page 8).

Loan Application Records (LAR> and T ransm ittal Sheet fTS) D ata: The LAR & TS data are collected by a financial institution
as a result of applications for, and originations and purchases of, home-purchase loans (including refinancings) and homeimprovement loans for each calendar year. LARs for 1990 total almost 6.6 million records and 9,332 Transmittal Sheets (TSs); the
1991 LARs data total over 7.9 million records and 9,359 TSs; the 1992 LARs data total approximately 12.0 million records and
9,072 TSs; the 1993 LARs data total approximately 15.0 million records and 9,650 TSs; the 1994 LARs data total approximately
12.0 million records and 9,858 TSs; the 1995 LARs data total over 11.0 million records and 9,539 TSs; and the 19% LARs data
total over 14.0 million records and 9,238 TSs. The following should be noted:
•

•

Data is not certified as error free.
For reasons of privacy, the dates and loan application numbers are omitted
from each record.
To form a unique identifier for a reporter, the Respondent ID and single character Agency Code must be
used. To form a unique loan record identifier, the Respondent ID, Agency Code, and Loan Sequence
Number must be used. See record layout enclosed with distribution tape for additional information.

The LAR and TS data are distributed on tape at a cost o f $500.00. Reels or cartridges may be chosen. Record formats and file
descriptions are included with each order. (Item #102)
If reels are ordered, there are multiple reels containing the LAR data and one reel containing the TS data. If cartridges are
ordered, there are several cartridges containing the LAR data and one containing the TS data. (The number of reels/cartridges
containing LAR data vary according to the year requested because of the volume of data.) Note that both reels and cartridges
containing LAR data are multi-volume datasets. This means that to process ALL of the LAR data, each of the reels or cartridges
must be read successively.
The LAR and TS data are also distributed on CD-ROM at a cost of $50.00. The HMDA Raw Data Software System moved
from a DOS based to a Windows based application as o f 1995. The user has the ability to do the following:
•
•
•

Download the data contained on the compact discs
to a file.
Search by MSA, State, County, or Respondent ID
and save to a file.
Import the file created from a download or search into a software package or
mainframe application. It is important to consider
the space limitations
of each application prior to loading the data into that application.

These LAR and TS files are also available for MICA data beginning with the fourth quarter of 1993. The 1993MICA

MSA Aggregate Reports and Disclosure Statements on M icrofiche/CD-RO M : The MSA Aggregate Reports and individual
lender Disclosure Statements for each MSA are available on microfiche at a cost of $20.00 per MSA (Item #301) or on CD-ROM
at a cost of $150.00 for the entire nation. (Item #302)
The CD-ROM allows the user to search by MSA, an institution's individual disclosure statement, or a specific table on the MSA
aggregation report. Printing these records requires a printer featured for 166 character output.
The MSA Aggregate Repons and Disclosure Statements on Microfiche/CD-ROM are also available for MICA data. These data are
not available prior to 1994 (see page 8).
MSA bv MSA R eport on the Disposition of Applications bv Race and Income of Each A pplicant: This report contains one
table for each of the MSAs (341 in 1992). It provides the number and percentage of applications denied by the race and income of
the applicants within the MSA. The report is available in hardcopy only at a cost of $50.00. (Item #006)
These reports are also available for MICA data. These data are not available prior to 1994 (see page 8).
MSA M edian Family Income L isting: The listing shows ’MSA Median Family Incomes for 19xx HMDA Reports" where xx is
the HMDA year (i.e., 1990, 1991, etc.). If a 1990 Listing is selected, there is an adjustment factor of 1.6424 applied to the 1980
Median Family Income column for each MSA to arrive at the Inflation Adjusted 1980 Median Family Income column. For 1991
and subsequent listings, the median family income of the MSA is based on estimates developed annually by the Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The figure for the MSA is the HUD estimate for the fiscal year that corresponds to the
year for which the loan/application data are reported. For 1996 and years thereafter, the listing includes median family incomes for
non-metro areas by state. This information is calculated by taking the median family incomes of all census tracts and BN As by
state outside of the MSA boundaries. The Listing is distributed free of charge. (Item #004)
National A ggregate R e p o rts: These reports are a nationwide summation of the individual MSA Aggregate Reports. They indicate
the number and dollar amounts of lending, cross tabulated by loan, applicant, and geographic characteristics. The reports are
available in hardcopy only at a cost of $50.00. (Item #005)
The National Aggregate Reports are also available for MICA data. These data are not available prior to 1993 (see page 8).
PC Diskettes bv M SA : The PC Diskettes by MSA contain individual loan application records coded for the MSA(s) selected on
the form. The data contained for each MSA are only for institutions that are located in that M SA -that is, the data reflected in the
Aggregate Report for that MSA. These data cover the institution's loan activity only in the MSA ordered. There are also seven
fields added to each loan application that identify the population, minority population, and other census information. The number of
PC diskettes generated per MSA determine the charge. The charges are broken down as follows: 1-4 diskettes per MSA is $25;
