ICBA Comments: In a comment letter, ICBA said:
Agency collaboration will be essential to optimizing federal programs.
Consistent guidance will help community banks serve unbanked and underbanked customers.
Because data collection is burdensome, the ICIC should explore data that is already being captured.
Agencies should convene private and public stakeholders to develop strategies for serving underserved areas.
