Wells Fargo & Co.'s president and chief executive officer talked about underwriting changes at an investor conference this week. He explained that home-equity loan growth has slowed as a result of tighter underwriting. Wells has stopped acquiring business from the highest-risk indirect channels, reduced the maximum combined loan-to-values in all channels and reinforced its focus on retail. The CEO also noted that on first mortgages, maximum LTVs have been revised, income-documentation standards have been enhanced and risk-based pricing has been adjusted.
