Wednesday, August 28, 2019
3:00 pm – 4:30 pm Eastern

There could be danger hiding among your credit reports!  The credit reporting function has taken on added significance in recent years with increased borrower awareness of the power of the credit score, the rise of CFPB regulations and complaint tracking, and highly motivated consumer protection attorneys.  Credit reporting continues to be one of the most-cited consumer concerns and has therefore received added attention from the CFPB, examiners, and the legal community.  From policies and procedures, to quality assurance and organizational charts, this essential function impacts every financial institution and there are some basic steps that can increase efficiency, reduce risks, and calm your compliance nerves.   

Fortunately, the regulations, examination guidance, and hard-earned experience create a detailed model of a fully compliant credit reporting function – if you know where to look.  This webinar will focus on the unique operational and compliance challenges posed by credit reporting disputes.  From automated disputes to direct disputes and all the gray areas in between, this session will provide a common-sense approach to FCRA dispute compliance and management.  This session will cut through the regulatory web and provide a clean, manageable credit reporting process for your institution.
