摘要
Subprime mortgage lending has grown rapidly and so has enactment of state anti-predatory lending laws. Our analysis suggests that anti-predatory lending laws influence subprime market dynamics and that disaggre-gating them into component parts is essential for understanding their market impact. Restrictions, coverage, and enforcement provisions all have significant relationships with subprime outcomes, the latter being a new finding. One finding, that broader coverage is associated with higher subprime origination likelihoods, is consistent with a reverse lemons hypothesis. There is also evidence that newer mini-HOEPA laws affect the subprime market above and beyond the older preexisting laws, particularly for subprime originations. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc.
