Over the past year, the St. Louis Equal Housing and Community Reinvestment Alliance (SLEHCRA) collected information from area banks to gather an aggregate look at their lending and Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) activities across the region into a report for the community.

This report is intended to provide an update on the changes that have occurred in financial services that help meet the needs of the community. We believe it is important to track changes over time and to report those changes publicly. We intend for this to highlight positive changes and to build accountability for continued progress.

In addition to collecting information from lending institutions, community members were also asked about their experiences with and attitudes toward banking within their own communities. The results of these examinations are published here for an overview of the state of banking services being offered throughout the greater St. Louis service area.
