Wolters Kluwer Names the Winner of Its 2021 Alfredo deHaas Excellence in Data Analytics Award

Krystle Hood of Santander Bank honored at 25th Annual CRA & Fair Lending Colloquium

Wolters Kluwer Compliance Solutions has named Krystle Hood, CRA Compliance Manager at Santander Bank, NA in Boston, as the 2021 honoree of its Alfredo deHaas Excellence in Analytics Award. The award, which recognizes a banking professional who “excels in leveraging data to demonstrate his or her institution’s commitment to regulatory compliance,” was announced at the company’s 25th annual CRA & Fair Lending Colloquium on Wednesday, Nov. 17th.

Named after longtime Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) analyst Alfredo deHaas of MUFG Union Bank, N.A., the award is meant “to trumpet the ‘unsung heroes’ who embody Alfredo’s passion and spirit for championing the creative and thoughtful use of data.”

Hood was selected by a committee of veteran compliance professionals from the banking industry for her professionalism, accomplishments and commitment to excellence in data analytics. She was part of the bank’s compliance team to revitalize and strengthen Santander’s community revitalization work, including her participation in the bank’s “Inclusive Communities” initiative, a major program to boost the long-term economic success of low- and moderate-income individuals and neighborhoods in the greater Boston region through increased lending.

“As part of the second line of defense, Krystle’s team is tasked with monitoring and reporting out on the components of our small business lending and mortgage data, information that is critical in evaluating the effectiveness of Santander’s community reinvestment efforts. That output starts right at the core of our business in the data that we collect to document transactions across our small business and mortgage lending programs,” said Seth Goodall, Executive Director of Corporate Social Responsibility, Santander. “Through her passion and keen affinity for using data analytics to document, inform and support our reinvestment initiatives, Krystle was instrumental in helping our bank significantly enhance Santander’s CRA profile across the region and our ability to provide more meaningful, hands-on support to communities in need.”

“Alfredo deHaas had a passion using data analytics to help colleagues make more informed business decisions and in that way help fulfill their regulatory compliance obligations. In her role with Santander’s CRA compliance team, Krystle Hood has embodied those same qualities,” said Steven Meirink, Executive Vice President and General Manager at Wolters Kluwer Compliance Solutions. “It is a great honor to recognize Krystle’s dedication and contributions to data analytics through this award.”
