The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has updated the asset-size exemption threshold for banks, savings associations, and credit unions under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) to $58 million for 2025, based on an average 2.9% increase in the Consumer Price Index. This change means that institutions with assets of $58 million or less as of December 31, 2024, will not have to collect certain data in 2025. The amendment, which eliminates the need for public comment due to its technical and non-discretionary nature, will take effect on January 1, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The CFPB updated a rule to help small banks by raising a money limit, so banks with less than $58 million don't need to gather certain information next year. This change happened because prices have gone up, like when you need more allowance because toys cost more.
