Finance, Banking and Mortgage Fraud

Financial and banking institutions must carefully monitor funds they handle in order to operate legally and within the law. The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) insures residential mortgages by banks, and the law makes providing false information from or about the borrower a violation of the False Claims Act.

In 2012, the Bank of America was fined $1 billion as a result of findings of fraud in its underwriting of loans to unqualified borrowers through an affiliate, Countrywide Financial during the 2008 financial crisis. The loans were made based on inflated property appraisals, leading to huge financial losses by the FHA. Another whistleblower lawsuit against Citigroup, resulted in a finding that Citigroup Bank defrauded the government by falsely certifying that its loans met FHA standards. Citigroup paid $158 million in fines.
