NAFCU’s Feb. 13 Webcast Kicks Off CFPB Mortgage Reform Series

WASHINGTON – The National Association of Federal Credit Unions (NAFCU) is kicking off its “CFPB Mortgage Reform Webcast Series” with a special two-hour program featuring an overview of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (CFPB) seven new mortgage regulations. The webcast, “The CFPB’s Final Mortgage Regulations,” will broadcast live Feb. 13, 2 p.m. EST, from the association’s headquarters in Arlington, Va.

NAFCU Director of Regulatory Compliance Steve Van Beek will be the webcast’s speaker. “Credit unions offering mortgage loans are facing an incredible amount of uncertainty.  The CFPB’s 3507 pages of new mortgage rules have the potential to drastically alter the way credit unions make mortgage loans to their members,” said Van Beek. “This webcast will help credit unions understand which new requirements apply to their mortgage products and how best to prioritize their implementation strategy to ensure they can comply with the new rules.”

The Feb. 13 webcast’s deadline for early registration savings is February 6.

The CFPB Mortgage Reform Webcast Series is designed to help credit unions prepare for the impact of CFPB’s mortgage reform initiatives. Other webcasts scheduled in the series include:

  • CFPB Ability to Repay/Qualified Mortgages, March 6
  • CFPB Compliance Update by NAFCU’s Compliance Team, March 27
  • What new requirements apply to HELOCs?, April 10
