Why Should You Attend
In the process of developing HMDA (Home Mortgage Disclosure Act) reports it is possible to make a variety of mistakes. Some of these are considered more significant than others. Some are more common than others. If the number of mistakes is high, it can result in rework and even fines. This can result in a loss of trust in your institution by regulators, which is never a good thing. The Topic is based on statistics as to common mistakes and the experience of a former regulator as to which mistakes will view as most significant to the regulators. It will also cover material useful in helping any operation reduce human errors.
