Answer:

The Equal Credit Opportunity Act.

Explanation:

Under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) all individuals must be given an equal opportunity to apply for loans from financial institutions. Individual applications should only be considered regarding aspects related to their creditworthiness. Individuals cannot be discriminated regarding personal factors like race, color, national origin, sex, religion, or marital status.
