## Abstract

The Board is publishing amendments to Regulation Z (Truth in Lending). The amendments implement changes made to the Truth in Lending Act by the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994. The law imposes new disclosure requirements and substantive limitations on closed-end home equity mortgage loans bearing rates or fees above a certain percentage or amount. The amendments provide protection to consumers entering into these mortgages. The law also imposes new disclosure requirements to assist consumers in comparing the cost of reverse mortgage transactions, which provide periodic advances primarily to elderly homeowners and rely principally on the home's value for repayment.
