Proposed changes to mortgage-reporting rules would reduce race, gender and income details provided to government

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau said it would propose changes to rules dating from a 1970s law that requires lenders to gather and report data on their mortgage loans and applicants, including the loan amount and the borrower’s income, race and gender.
