Credit Risk Retention-Notification of Determination of Review

71810 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 241 / Monday, December 20, 2021 / Rules and Regulations Section 515 of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act, 2001 (44 U.S.C. 3516 note) provides for Federal agencies to review most disseminations of information to the public under information quality guidelines established by each agency pursuant to general guidelines issued by OMB. OMB’s guidelines were published at 67 FR 8452 (Feb. 22, 2002), and DOE’s guidelines were published at 67 FR 62446 (Oct. 7, 2002). Pursuant to OMB Memorandum M–19–15, Improving Implementation of the Information Quality Act (April 24, 2019), DOE published updated guidelines which are available at https://www.energy.gov/sites/prod/files/ 2019/12/f70/DOE%20Final%20Up dated%20IQA%20Guidelines%20Dec% 202019.pdf. DOE has reviewed this final rule under the OMB and DOE guidelines and has concluded that it is consistent with applicable policies in those guidelines. K. Review Under Executive Order 13211 E.O. 13211, ‘‘Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use,’’ 66 FR 28355 (May 22, 2001), requires Federal agencies to prepare and submit to OIRA at OMB, a Statement of Energy Effects for any significant energy action. A ‘‘significant energy action’’ is defined as any action by an agency that promulgates or is expected to lead to promulgation of a final rule, and that (1) is a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866, or any successor order; and (2) is likely to have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use of energy, or (3) is designated by the Administrator of OIRA as a significant energy action. For any significant energy action, the agency must give a detailed statement of any adverse effects on energy supply, distribution, or use should the proposal be implemented, and of reasonable alternatives to the action and their expected benefits on energy supply, distribution, and use. DOE has concluded that this regulatory action—which amends the definition of showerhead, withdraws the definition of body spray, and retains the definition of safety shower showerhead—will not have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use of energy and, therefore, is not a significant energy action. Accordingly, DOE has not prepared a Statement of Energy Effects on this final rule. L. Congressional Notification As required by 5 U.S.C. 801, DOE will report to Congress on the promulgation of this rule before its effective date. The report will state that it has been determined that the rule is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). V. Approval of the Office of the Secretary The Secretary of Energy has approved publication of this final rule.

The Credit Risk Retention Regulations require the OCC, Board, FDIC and Commission, in consultation with the FHFA and HUD, to commence a review of the following provisions of the Credit Risk Retention Regulations no later than December 24, 2019: (1) The definition of qualified residential mortgage (QRM) in section _.13 of the Credit Risk Retention Regulations; (2) the community-focused residential mortgage exemption in section _.19(f) of the Credit Risk Retention Regulations; and (3) the exemption for qualifying three-to-four unit residential mortgage loans in section _.19(g) of the Credit Risk Retention Regulations (collectively, the subject residential mortgage provisions). Notification announcing the commencement of the review was published in the Federal Register on December 20, 2019 (84 FR 70073). Notification announcing the agencies’ decision to extend to June 20, 2021, the period for completion of the review and publication of notification disclosing determination of the review was published in the Federal Register on June 30, 2020 (85 FR 39099). On July 22, 2021, the agencies published another notification in the Federal Register, announcing their decision to extend the period to complete the review further to December 20, 2021 (86 FR 38607). The agencies have completed their review of the subject residential mortgage provisions and this notification discloses the agencies’ determination as a result of the review. Overview Section 15G of the Securities Exchange Act, as added by section 941(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act), required the Board, FDIC, OCC (collectively, the Federal banking agencies) and the Commission, together with, in the case of the securitization of any ‘‘residential mortgage asset,’’ HUD and FHFA, to jointly prescribe regulations that (i) require a securitizer to retain not less than five percent of the credit risk of any asset that the securitizer, through the issuance of an asset-backed security (ABS), transfers, sells, or conveys to a third party, and (ii) prohibit a securitizer from directly or indirectly hedging or otherwise transferring the credit risk that the securitizer is required to retain under section 15G and the agencies’ implementing rules.1 Section 941 of the Dodd-Frank Act also provides that a securitizer shall not be required to retain any part of the credit risk for an asset that is transferred, sold, or conveyed through the issuance of ABS interests by the securitizer, if all of the assets that collateralize the ABS interests are QRMs, as that term is jointly defined by the agencies. Section 941 provides that the definition of QRM can be ‘‘no broader than’’ the definition of a ‘‘qualified mortgage’’ (QM) as that term is defined under section 129C of the Truth in Lending Act (TILA),2 as amended by the Dodd-Frank Act, and regulations adopted thereunder.3 The agencies decided to align the definition of QRM with the definition of QM.4 The Credit Risk Retention Regulations define QRM to mean a QM, as defined under section 129C of TILA and Regulation Z issued thereunder at 12 CFR part 1026, as amended from time to time. As part of the Credit Risk Retention Regulations, the agencies are required to review the definition of QRM periodically to assess developments in the residential mortgage market, including the results of the statutorily required five-year review by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) of the ability-to-repay rules and the QM definition. In conducting the review (the commencement of which was announced on December 20, 2019) and reaching their conclusions, the agencies considered what has been learned since 2014 about whether the loan and borrower characteristics specified in the QRM definition are predictive of a lower risk of default and also assessed how mortgage credit access conditions have changed since 2014, using data from the date on which the Credit Risk Retention Regulations were announced, October 22, 2014, through December 31, 2019 (the review period). Among other things, the agencies analyzed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the Enterprises) and non￾Enterprise loan-level mortgage VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:01 Dec 17, 2021 Jkt 256001 PO 00000 Frm 00015 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\20DER1.SGM 20DER1 khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES

71812 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 241 / Monday, December 20, 2021 / Rules and Regulations 5Available at https://files.consumerfinance.gov/f/ documents/cfpb_ability-to-repay-qualified￾mortgage_assessment-report.pdf. 6Measures of mortgage credit availability, such as those produced by the Urban Institute (www.urban.org), suggest that credit availability during the review period was tight relative to levels in the early 2000s. Tight credit conditions generally refer to periods of reduced availability of credit. 7The Credit Risk Retention Regulations require the agencies to conduct a review of the subject residential mortgage provisions upon the request of any agency, specifying the reason for such request. Accordingly, the agencies may conduct a further review of the subject residential mortgage provisions at any time. 8The letter noted that an advance notice of proposed rulemaking had been issued by the CFPB and that the CFPB was expected to follow with a notice of proposed rulemaking. 9The agencies nonetheless reviewed what were, at the time of the review, the CFPB’s changes to the general definition of a QM (from a definition based, in part, on debt-to-income (DTI) to one based on loan pricing). Based upon the information provided by the CFPB to support the changes, the agencies concluded that these changes, if implemented, were not likely to significantly affect the overall impact of the QRM definition on the mortgage market. 10While this comment letter also praised the agencies for delaying the issuance of the review determination until the CFPB changes were finalized, as noted above, the agencies did not delay the issuance of their determination to consider those changes as those changes occurred outside of the review period. 11 15 U.S.C. 78o–11(e)(4)(B). 12Mortgage servicing data from the Enterprises was used for this analysis, and the Commission staff contributed its analysis using mortgage servicing data from CoreLogic. 13The agencies confirmed that loan-to-value (LTV) ratio and credit score, which the agencies considered in the 2014 rulemaking but did not incorporate into the QRM definition, also predict default. 14Measures of mortgage credit availability, such as those produced by the Urban Institute, suggest that credit availability during the review period was tight relative to levels in the early 2000s. 15The Enterprises are subject to risk retention, but benefit from a provision in the Credit Risk Retention Regulations that allows their full guarantee of principal and interest on mortgage backed securities to count as an eligible form of risk retention while they are under conservatorship or receivership and have capital support from the U.S. Treasury. In contrast to the Enterprises, Ginnie Mae, a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation within HUD, is exempt from risk retention pursuant to statutory direction in the Dodd-Frank Act. See 15 U.S.C. 78o–11(c)(1)(G)(ii) and (e)(3)(B). According to estimates by Inside Mortgage Finance and the Urban Institute, the annual share of the dollar volume of first-lien mortgage originations that were either acquired by the Enterprises or securitized through an FHA or VA program has ranged from about 62 to 76 percent over the period 2015 to 2020(https:// www.urban.org/sites/default/files/publication/ 104602/july-chartbook-2021_2.pdf). origination and performance data (including data on originations, defaults, and loan and borrower characteristics), held discussions with market participants, and reviewed academic research, policy research prepared by research and advocacy organizations, and the results of the CFPB’s Ability-to-Repay and Qualified Mortgage Rule Assessment Report issued in 2019.5 The analysis also considered the effects on default risk of additional loan and borrower characteristics not included in the QRM definition. The analysis confirmed that the loan and borrower characteristics specified in the QM definition in effect during the review period were predictive of a lower risk of default. In addition, the agencies found that, while credit conditions have improved since 2014, they remain tight relative to longer-term norms.6 After analyzing those data, reviewing those analyses and considering the importance of maintaining broad access to credit, the agencies have decided, at this time, not to propose to amend the definition of QRM, the community￾focused residential mortgage exemption, or the exemption for qualifying three-to￾four unit residential mortgage loans.7 Public Comments In response to the notification of commencement of the review, which included a request for comment, the agencies received one comment (on behalf of 37 organizations) prior to the end of the comment period. The comment requested that the agencies defer the review until after the CFPB completed its then-proposed rulemaking to make changes to the QM definition, which would automatically modify the QRM definition to the extent no changes are made to the definition.8 In response, the agencies note that the review is intended to consider the definition of QRM in light of changes in mortgage and securitization market conditions and practices and how the QRM definition has affected residential mortgage underwriting and securitization of residential mortgage loans under evolving market conditions during the review period. The CFPB did not issue the final QM changes until December 10, 2020, well after the review period.9 In June 2021, the agencies received a second comment letter (on behalf of six organizations), expressing support for the continued alignment of the definitions of QRM and QM.10 Definition of QRM The agencies’ decision in 2014 to equate the QRM and QM definitions in the Credit Risk Retention Regulations was based on two main factors. First, the Dodd-Frank Act mandated that the definition of QRM ‘‘tak[e] into consideration underwriting and product features that historical loan performance data indicate result in a lower risk of default.’’ 11 Second, the Dodd-Frank Act specified that the QRM definition could not be broader than the QM definition, and the agencies were concerned that a QRM definition that was narrower than the QM definition could exacerbate already-tight mortgage credit conditions existing at that time. In the current review of the definition of QRM, the agencies considered whether the loan and borrower characteristics specified in the QM definition are predictive of a lower risk of default and how mortgage credit conditions have changed since 2014. The agencies confirmed that the QRM definition that was in effect for the review period—with the requirement that debt-to-income (DTI) ratios generally not exceed 43 percent—was predictive of lower default rates. The agencies used loan-level mortgage origination and performance data on Enterprise and non-Enterprise loans in the review.12 The agencies followed the performance of loans originated between 2012 and 2015 and found that, after four years, loans with a DTI ratio greater than 43 percent were more likely to have become 90-days delinquent than loans with lower DTI ratios. The review also confirmed that the measurement of DTI had improved from when the analysis was last conducted, with a greater proportion of full documentation mortgage loans in the dataset in 2019 than in 2014. In the review, the agencies also considered the effects of additional loan and borrower characteristics on default risk.13 The agencies also considered whether the QRM definition, as aligned with the QM definition, affected the availability of credit. While credit conditions had improved since 2014, they remained tight during the review period relative to longer-term norms.14 However, the agencies determined that the QRM definition did not appear to be a material factor in credit conditions during the review period, in part because so much of the market was funded through Enterprise and Ginnie Mae securitizations.15 More generally, the agencies concluded from the review that risk retention remains an effective tool for aligning the interests of securitizers, originators, and investors, and reducing default risk on certain loans. In addition, the Credit Risk Retention Regulations do not appear to be weighing materially on mortgage credit availability. Finally, the agencies considered whether the QRM definition, as aligned with the QM definition, affected the securitization market. As the agencies anticipated, the QRM definition contributed to the bifurcation of the VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:01 Dec 17, 2021 Jkt 256001 PO 00000 Frm 00016 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\20DER1.SGM 20DER1 khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 241 / Monday, December 20, 2021 / Rules and Regulations 71813 16These securitizations are typically collateralized by jumbo mortgages that are ineligible for purchase by the Enterprises because they exceed the conventional loan limits set by the FHFA and by prime loans that are offered to highly qualified borrowers. These mortgages typically meet the QRM standards. 17See, e.g., ‘‘On the Rise: Trading Desks Focusing on Non-QM Paper.’’ Inside MBS & ABS, Inside Mortgage Finance Publications, 2019.30, 6. 18 79 FR 77602, 77694 (December 24, 2014). 19The agencies identified seven securitizations that relied upon this exemption since 2019; these securitizations funded approximately $610 million in community-focused residential mortgages. 20Based on data reported under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA), there were about 35,000 such purchase originations in 2018 and 2019 combined, and of these, less than 2 percent appear to have been funded through private-label securitizations. private-label securitization market between securitizations of ‘‘prime/ jumbo’’ loans 16 which typically meet the characteristics of QM and are, therefore, exempt from risk retention as QRM, and securitizations of ‘‘non-QM’’ loans that are not QRM and, therefore, generally not exempt from risk retention. However, according to industry sources, the market for securitizations of non-QM loans was quite competitive through the end of 2019, which suggests that risk retention did not materially affect the ability of issuers in this market to obtain capital needed for mortgage originations.17 In light of the foregoing, the agencies are not proposing to amend the definition of QRM at this time. Community-Focused Residential Mortgages Community-focused residential mortgages are mortgages made by community development financial institutions (CDFIs), community housing development organizations, certain non-profits, or certain secondary financing providers, or through a state housing finance agency (HFA) program. These entities frequently make mortgage loans using flexible underwriting criteria that are not compatible with the TILA ability-to-repay requirements. To ensure continued borrower access to these loan programs, the CFPB exempted these loans from the TILA ability-to-repay requirement and, as a result, such loans are unable to be made as QMs. Similarly, the agencies provided a separate exemption for these loans from the risk retention requirement. The agencies justified this exemption by citing the ‘‘strong underwriting procedures to maximize affordability and borrower success in keeping their homes’’ and noted that the exemption ‘‘serve[s] the public interest because these entities have stated public mission purposes to make safe, sustainable loans available primarily to [low-to moderate-income] communities.’’ 18 In the years since adoption of the Credit Risk Retention Regulations, only a few CDFIs have used this exemption.19 While HFAs have not used this exemption, discussions with market participants revealed that private securitization could become a more attractive option if a state HFA needed to issue bonds in excess of its tax￾exempt allotment. Therefore, the agencies, at this time, are not proposing to amend the exemption for community￾focused residential mortgages. Three-to-Four Unit Residential Mortgages Mortgages that are collateralized by three-to-four-unit properties are defined as ‘‘business purpose’’ loans rather than consumer credit transactions under TILA, and as such are not subject to the ability-to-repay requirement, and are unable to qualify as QMs. The agencies recognized that securitization markets typically pool mortgages collateralizing three-to-four-unit residential mortgages with other residential mortgage loans. The agencies also provided an exemption for three-to-four-unit residential mortgages that otherwise would qualify as QMs to ensure that credit did not contract to this part of the market. The number of mortgages collateralized by three-to-four-unit properties, and the percentage of such mortgages funded through private-label securitizations, is small.20 The exemption also does not appear to be spurring any significant speculative activity in the securitization market and, at the same time, these properties are a source of affordable housing. Therefore, the agencies are not proposing to amend this exemption at this time. Michael J. Hsu, Acting Comptroller of the Currency. By order of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
