Compliance doesn’t apply to commercial lenders, right? It certainly is a common misconception among those involved in commercial lending that “compliance doesn’t apply to us.” But in fact, there are many rules and regulations that have a direct impact on the commercial lending function. Many of those are rules that people typically think are consumer-only. In addition, examiners are looking more closely at commercial loans due to turbulence in the marketplace.

We’ll explore the range of rules and regulations that cover commercial lending so you’re not caught unaware.

Covered rules include:

Fair Lending – not just for consumer loans
Regulation O – do you count all your related interests?
HMDA – unexpected impact and making sure all proper applications are reported
Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) – reporting and community development
Appraisals – new rules and emphasis
Flood Insurance – construction and condos especially
Real Estate Lending Standards (LTV Rules), including nonconforming loans
USA Patriot Act Customer Information Program requirements

Who Should Attend?

This interactive session will give a basic understanding of each of these rules and is imperative for anyone performing duties in commercial lending areas of the financial institution. This includes loan officers, personal bankers, supervisors, auditors, compliance officers, trainers and others working in these types of positions.
