Event Synopsis: Concurrent to a proposal from the Federal Reserve Board to repeal Regulation AA (12 CFR part 227), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and several federal agencies have issued inter-agency guidance concerning unfair or deceptive credit practices by banking and financial entities. Never the less, the agencies claim to retain supervisory and enforcement authority regarding Unfair, Deceptive, and Abusive Acts or Practices (UDAP). Consequently, agencies may determine that statutory violations have occurred even in the absence of a specific regulation governing such conduct. In this two-hour LIVE webcast, a panel of distinguished professionals and thought leaders assembled by The Knowledge Group will help compliance and risk mitigation professionals and others understand the important aspects of the CFPB Guidance on UDAAP Enforcement in Light of Regulation AA Repeal. They will provide an in-depth discussion of UDAAP principles and the impact of this enhanced regulatory focus on financial products and services and related entities. Speakers will also offer best practices in developing and implementing an effective policy to identify compliance issues and potential violations of UDAAP. Key topics include: UDAAP Framework and Regulation AA (12 CFR part 227) Prohibited Practices Deemed as Unfair, Deceptive and Abusive Emphasis on Self-Reporting CFPB Guidance and Priorities Regulatory Compliance and Risk Mitigation About The Knowledge Group, LLC/The Knowledge Congress Live Webcast Series The Knowledge Group, LLC was established with the mission to produce unbiased, objective, and educational live webinars that examine industry trends and regulatory changes from a variety of different perspectives.
