The wait is over - on July 15, 2010, the U.S. Senate passed a sweeping financial regulatory reform bill. Do you know what’s in store for the future of mortgage banking?

This bill will overhaul the regulation of everything from big banks to consumer financial products, to exotic instruments like credit-default swaps and the derivatives used by farmers. It was designed by the government in an attempt to protect consumers and the economy from the risky practices of banks that helped facilitate the financial crisis, and creates a new consumer financial protection bureau. The bureau will have the power to create and enforce new rules regarding financial products like home-equity loans. A key aspect of the Act is that it amends the SAFE Act and also includes a definition of mortgage originator that differs from the SAFE Act definition, thus raising issues of how the CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Bureau) rulemaking may differ from rulemaking efforts so far.

AllRegs Academy’s Financial Reform: What Every Mortgage Banker Needs to Know audio course will deliver the fine points of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and what you need to be aware of with the future of the mortgage banking industry. 

The 90-minute course will cover key issues on restrictions on mortgage originator compensation, the prohibitions on the steering of consumers by mortgage originators and borrower repayment ability determination requirements. The audio course will also cover appraisal requirements and the elimination of the HVCC, as well as the risk retention requirements for mortgage lenders, the new Consumer Protection Agency and how the agency will try to shelter consumers from predatory lending practices.
