Deutsche Bank to pay $202 million U.S. mortgage settlement
(Reuters) – A Deutsche Bank AG (DBKGn.DE) mortgage unit has agreed to pay $202.3 million to settle one of the biggest U.S. government civil fraud lawsuits over reckless mortgage lending practices.
The bank’s MortgageIT unit admitted it had lied to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that loans it issued were eligible for federal mortgage insurance when they were not, the U.S. attorney’s office in Manhattan said on Thursday. It said MortgageIT “repeatedly submitted certifications that were knowingly or recklessly false.”

For Some, ‘Frustration’ Over Mortgage Settlement
Earlier this month, a judge approved a settlement between five major banks and nearly all of the state attorneys general. The banks admitted to taking shortcuts — or “robo-signing” documents — as they pushed through some foreclosures.
Most of the $25 billion settlement is supposed to go toward reducing mortgage payments for some troubled homeowners. But lots of other programs have promised to help struggling homeowners in the past, and results have been disappointing.
