According to a Treasury Department report, the largest U.S. banks have found it more difficult to meet demand for loan modifications than their smaller rivals. As stated by a U.S. Treasury official, the pace and effectiveness of the government’s anti-foreclosure programs has been limited by the inability of some mortgage servicers to keep up with demand.
David Sisko, the head of default management services for Deloitte & Touche LLP said that the Bank of America Corp., Citigroup Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Wells Fargo & Co. are likely to show the poorest levels of homeowner assistance among the 31 companies participating in President Barack Obama’s $75 billion loan modification program. The government said it wants to clearly show the companies that are doing the most to help.
