Columbus Dispatch CRA Investigation

Options

‎05-06-2012 06:53 AM

Here's a great article in the Columbus Dispatch.  They conducted a year-long investigation into "The Big Three" CRA's failures/consumer complaints, and there's discussion of the role of the newly created Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.  Hopefully this will eventually lead to much-needed reform.
