Fair-Lending Reviewer
Independent fair-lending challenge on decisions, pricing and policy changes.
Reviews decision batches for disparate outcomes: comparable-applicant testing, pricing dispersion, override patterns. Challenges any scorecard or policy change before it ships and files findings with the accountable fair-lending owner. It reviews the lending agents' work; it cannot change a single decision itself.
