Section 1071 amended the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) to require financial institutions to collect, report and make public certain information concerning credit applications made by women-owned, minority-owned and small businesses. The symposium will provide a public forum for the Bureau and the public to hear various perspectives on the small business lending marketplace and the Bureau’s upcoming implementation of Section 1071.
