Description:
WHAT
All of the regulations reviewed in a compliance examination cover consumer lending, but many of those regulations also impact commercial lending. Determining exactly which requirements impact commercial loans is a challenge. We are pleased to present this program to help commercial lenders understand which compliance requirements impact their department.
This two-hour program identifies the major compliance regulations that apply to commercial transactions and reviews particular issues from each of those regulations that cause problems for commercial lenders.
WHY
Many examiners find the commercial lending area is fertile for compliance violations because of confusion regarding which requirements apply to commercial loans. Those violations may result in penalties or expensive litigation. This program:
- Identifies problem areas;
- Provides suggestions for avoiding and curing the problems; and
- Covers training and auditing concerns.
Participants receive a detailed manual that serves as a valuable resource long after the conclusion of the program.
