The Federal government enacted the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (NFIA) and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (FDPA) because of the increased risk associated with loans secured by property in flood zones. The FDPA states that a bank cannot make, increase, extend, or renew any designated loan unless the building or mobile home and any personal property securing the loan is covered by flood insurance for the term of the loan. In addition, a bank that acquires a loan from a mortgage broker or other entity through table funding must be considered to be making a loan for the purposes of this requirement.
