WEBINAR DETAILS
Accurate communication with applicants and existing
borrowers is critical, especially when the application is being denied or the
loan terms are changing for a pre-existing credit arrangement. Adverse action
notices are designed to communicate concern to applicants and borrowers. Along
with being an informational notice, a loan denial triggers Regulation B
requirements, and depending on the reason for denial, a Fair Credit Reporting
Act (FCRA) notice may also be mandated. Examiners have long identified
weaknesses in the handling of loan applications that never yield an originated
loan. This webinar will focus on pinpointing when an inquiry becomes an
application, important timing requirements, and proper completion of the
adverse action notice and other notification options, including a counteroffer.
This program will also review the CFPB’s advisory opinion and address the notification requirements when there are unfavorable changes to the terms of existing credit arrangements. You will learn about the notification requirements to both consumer and business applicants. Common regulator-identified errors will be explained and tips on how to avoid them will be provided. To help meet fair lending and Reg B compliance standards, participants will receive a tool designed to document the second review of a denied loan file.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This informative session will
best suit loan officers, loan processors responsible for denials and/or second
reviews, compliance officers, and auditors.
