HMDA Services Built Around Your Institution’s Needs
Every lender’s HMDA program is different.
Some institutions need confidence that this year’s Loan/Application Register (LAR) is accurate before submission. Others are looking to improve processes, strengthen controls, prepare for examination, or better leverage HMDA data to support fair lending, CRA, and strategic decision making.
CrossCheck provides both project-based consulting and ongoing advisory support to help institutions manage HMDA throughout the year—not simply during filing season.

- Targeted transactional file reviews
- Full HMDA file reviews
- Root cause analysis of recurring errors

When should an institution engage a HMDA audit firm or consultant?
Many institutions seek assistance before annual filing, after identifying data quality concerns, during examinations, following system conversions, when implementing new products or technology, or whenever management wants an independent assessment of HMDA controls.
Can CrossCheck review our HMDA data before filing?
Yes. We perform independent HMDA data integrity testing, targeted or full file reviews, edit check analysis, and reporting validation to identify issues before submission.
Can CrossCheck help after we've already submitted our HMDA data?
Absolutely. We assist institutions responding to examiner questions, evaluating potential reporting errors, preparing resubmissions when necessary, and implementing corrective actions to reduce future risk.
Do you only review HMDA data?
No. Accurate reporting begins with sound processes. We also evaluate policies, procedures, data collection practices, system configuration, internal controls, governance, quality control programs, and training materials.
Can CrossCheck support institutions with limited HMDA resources?
Yes. Many clients rely on us for seasonal support during filing, ongoing monitoring throughout the year, or additional expertise during staffing transitions.

HMDA is one of the primary data sources regulators use to evaluate potential fair lending concerns. Strong HMDA data integrity improves the reliability of fair lending analysis and helps management identify potential issues earlier.
Can CrossCheck help us use HMDA strategically—not just for compliance?
Yes. HMDA contains valuable information about lending performance, market opportunities, peer positioning, borrower trends, and fair lending risk. We help institutions turn HMDA reporting into actionable business intelligence.

Yes. We support community banks, regional banks, mortgage bankers, credit unions, fintech lenders, and other organizations subject to HMDA reporting requirements.
