Find out why a top-ten mortgage lender with a proprietary loan origination system (LOS) needed to convert from a legacy document platform.
On June 24th, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) announced an initiative to enable consumers to assert their rights more effectively with large financial institutions. Specifically, the CFPB requests information about customer service experiences with their banks or credit unions. CFPB Director Chopra noted that the initiative is designed “to ensure the legally enshrined right to obtain basic customer service.”
The CFPB initiative is in response to the shift of focus of financial institutions from relationship banking toward consolidation and digitization, which may have resulted in a decline in customized advice, responsiveness, and care. The CFPB’s sense is that a sharper focus on relationship-based banking could play a critical role in fostering a fair, transparent, and competitive marketplace.
