Community Reinvestment Act and Community Development

Do you have more questions than answers when it comes to "Community Development"? If so, you're not alone. Many CRA Officers find this the most confusing part of the Community Reinvestment Act. Examiners themselves can take confusing and contradictory positions.

He has spoken at several ABA National Compliance Conferences as well as America's Community Banker's Compliance Conferences. He is frequently a guest speaker at state and regional bank meetings, and has written and published several major articles on CRA compliance.
