Find out why a top-ten mortgage lender with a proprietary loan origination system (LOS) needed to convert from a legacy document platform.
On March 31, 2021, the CFPB announced that it will rescind seven separate policy statements issued last year, each meant to provide temporary flexibility to financial institutions, as they do business during the COVID-19 pandemic. The statements address topics of interest to mortgage lenders, such as quarterly HMDA and FCRA reporting obligations and a more broad statement that, in its supervisory activities and enforcement actions, the CFPB would ‘take into account’ staffing and related resource challenges that confront lenders during the pandemic.
In the CFPB press release, the Acting Director of the CFPB noted that financial institutions have “developed more robust capabilities and demonstrated improved operations” during the pandemic, and that regulatory flexibility “should not come at the expense of consumers.”
This and other news regarding current regulatory updates can be found on the CFPB's website, cfpb.gov.
