What You'll Learn
Mortgage Servicing marries two of the most challenging regulations in banking: Reg Z and RESPA. The scope of coverage is equally intimidating. The two rules together cover the full life of a mortgage loan, from inception to collection. While the requirements mostly fall on closed-end mortgage loans, there are provisions that also apply for non-principal-residence loans and even open-end loans. Helpful exemptions apply for small servicers, but small shops don’t get out of everything. Plus! The Biden-era CFPB proposed significant changes to the mortgage servicing rules that would “streamline” certain aspects but add new additional burdens in others. What is the status of these proposed changes, and could they mean for your institution? Tune in to learn the latest!
