Program Description:
The Institute of Certified BankersTM(ICB) is dedicated to promoting the highest standards of performance and ethics within the financial services industry. This webinar has been approved for 2.5 CRCM credits.
This webinar deals with what is probably the most-difficult regulation in all of lending compliance – the Fed’s Regulation Z, Truth in Lending. It is always at or near the top of the list of the most frequently-violated regulations. In addition, the Fed has proposed two major changes to the rule – one to credit cards and the other to mortgages. Do you know what’s coming? The changes will have a major impact on the disclosures you provide for many types of loans, if they're finalized as written. We'll go over the proposals to get you ready. This session is an in-depth discussion of Regulation Z, where we will examine the details, including focusing on often-troubling parts of the rule as well as what's coming.
