Understand common furnishing challenges and issues in the accuracy and integrity of credit reporting.
Frequent updates to regulatory requirements and the necessary format for providing account- and consumer-level information to the credit reporting agencies require a constant review of the changes by data furnishers.
Whether you report to one or all four National Credit Reporting Agencies (NCRA), you must follow the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Fair & Accurate Credit Transaction Act (FACTA) amendment, and the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) standards. It's not so much what you know as it is re-polluting the consumer's file with some key points that can cost your Financial Institution a lot of money!
This 60-minute webinar on "Metro 2, e-OSCAR, and the New FCRA/CFPB Compliance Requirements" will be useful in developing proper credit policies and procedures to ensure compliance with Federal regulations. The expert will go over E-OSCAR (Electronic-Online Solution for Complete and Accurate Reporting), a CFPB requirement, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of using the METRO or METRO-2 format and any federal requirements.
We will also discuss whether you should report to more than one NCRA and why you should run quality checks on any data you report to ensure that your trade lines appear correctly on consumer reports and that you are in compliance.
This webinar will assist attendees in better understanding their potential legal risk and compliance obligations regarding consumer credit reporting. Special issues concerning the Metro 2 credit reporting guidelines, such as bankruptcies, disputed accounts, and identity theft, will also be addressed.
The majority of credit reporting disputes are resolved through the E-OSCAR/ACDV system, which has recently received updates that affect data furnishers' legal obligations in these disputes.
Legal risks can be mitigated more effectively and certain associated problems can be addressed and resolved more efficiently and effectively by understanding the obligations related to consumer credit reporting.
