Description

What is the problem

Communities of color are disproportionately impacted by the failures in our housing markets, with homeownership rates for Black and Latino individuals falling far below the rate for white individuals. Because homeownership is how many families save and build wealth, these racial disparities in homeownership contribute to the racial wealth gap. It is far past time to put an end to systemic housing discrimination and other contributors to this disparity. In order to achieve significant reductions in mortgage lending discrimination, regulatory agencies must do a better job of identifying institutions that are discriminating. Much of the research suggests that lending institutions maybe discriminating without realizing it. Lending institutions need tools they can use to monitor and assess their own anti-discrimination efforts. Lenders cannot take action if they do not realize that they are discriminating, and neither regulators nor fair housing groups have sufficient resources to investigate all lending institutions.

What is FinPower

FinPower is a powerful calibration tool, which helps Banks, Financial Institutions, and Regulating agencies to identify and eliminate discriminatory lending practices and monitor fair lending performance.
