Section 1071 Compliance From A to Z – Comprehensive Three Part Series

The final rule implementing Section 1071 of the Dodd-Frank Act is massive. In order to get started on the right foot, you need to have a thorough understanding of Section 1071 and how it will change your institution’s small business lending processes.

This comprehensive three-part webinar series has been carefully crafted to help you begin implementing the necessary changes within your institution and achieve compliance with Section 1071.

Part One – May 25th: Introduction to Section 1071 and Key Definitions

In the first part of the series we’ll go deep into 1071.  You will learn what’s in the final rule and how to “accurately” interpret what it means for your organization.  We will also discuss how Fair Lending and CRA programs will be impacted.  You’ll come away knowing the key elements of the law and  understanding what will be expected of your institution going forward.

Part Two – May 30^th: Small Business Data Collection Fields and Requirements

In part two, we’ll dig into the required data collection fields and explore ways to capture the new data elements. Collecting small business loan data will be difficult for most lenders. Multiple gender designations, free form fields, and the rules around LGBTQI+ data collection only add complexity. You’ll leave this session with the knowledge to create a plan for data collection.

Part Three – June 9th: Small Business Data Management and Implementing Changes at Your FI

Part three brings it all together. You’ll come away with the tools to create an effective, sustainable Section 1071 compliance program. We’ll also discuss ways to prepare your board and senior management, set and meet compliance expectations, and communicate with all stakeholders, including commercial lenders
