About this file

This document is Exhibit B of the City of Pittsburgh's Community Reinvestment Information request, which is part of the City's Responsible Banking Ordinance requiring financial institutions to provide detailed lending and community investment data for consideration as a city depository. The document outlines comprehensive reporting requirements for financial institutions, requesting detailed statistical data for the 2024 calendar year specifically within Pittsburgh's city boundaries, covering areas such as residential lending, small business lending, community development loans and investments, branch and deposit information, consumer loan data, and overall lending statistics.

The requested information encompasses multiple dimensions of financial activity, including loan originations across various categories (home purchases, refinancing, home improvement, small business loans), broken down by census tract income levels and business revenue sizes. Financial institutions must also report on community development initiatives, such as investments in affordable housing, community services for low to moderate income individuals, economic development activities, and engagement with community housing development organizations. The data collection aims to evaluate each institution's commitment to neighborhood reinvestment, with a particular focus on supporting low to moderate income residents, minority-owned businesses, and historic communities within Pittsburgh.
