## Abstract

The Board is publishing an adjustment to the dollar amount that triggers certain requirements of Regulation Z (Truth in Lending) for mortgages bearing fees above a certain amount. The Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 sets forth rules for home-secured loans in which the total points and fees payable by the consumer at or before loan consummation exceed the greater of $400 or 8 percent of the total loan amount. The Board is required to annually adjust the $400 amount based on the annual percentage change in the Consumer Price Index as reported on June 1. The Board adjusted the $400 amount to $412 for 1996 and to $424 for 1997. The Board has adjusted the dollar amount from $424 to $435 for 1998.
