Statement from Countrywide Financial Regarding Home Equity Lines of Credit
In keeping with its sound risk-management and responsible lending practices, Countrywide is reviewing and analyzing the home equity lines of credit in its servicing portfolio. Among the objectives of the analysis is a determination of the impact of lower property values on existing accounts. This analysis may result in the company suspending borrowers' future access to existing lines of credit. Customers affected by this analysis will be notified by mail. Customers who do not receive a letter may continue to use their home equity lines of credit. These measures do not impact the company's desire to originate new home equity lines of credit based on current property values and borrower qualifications.
