POLICY & COMPLIANCE TRACK: The Latest in Mortgage Servicing Compliance and Enforcement

Thursday, February 6, 2025 1:00 PM-2:00 PM Reunion Ballroom G, Lobby Level
Back to full schedule

This session examines key topics that raise regulatory risk, including servicing and related fees, escrow account administration, default servicing and loss mitigation, and ongoing focus on FCRA and credit furnishing activities. While “junk” fees and credit reporting issues are at the top of the CFPB’s list, the servicing landscape is also changing. Additional topics include LEP compliance, the impact of proposed changes to the CFPB’s Mortgage Servicing Rules, exam findings, and UDAAP violations. Sponsored by Bradley.
