Reno's warning came on the heels of a recent settlement of an unprecedented lending-bias case against Chevy Chase Federal Savings Bank, a suburban Washington, D.C., bank that was accused of bias in marketing services to predominantly Black and minority areas. It was revealed that until recently, Chevy Chase had no branches located in predominantly Black neighborhoods.
