New York, NY, May 07, 2013 --(PR.com)-- The Knowledge Group/The Knowledge Congress Live Webcast Series, the leading producer of regulatory focused webcasts, has confirmed today that John DelPonti, Managing Director, Valuation and Financial Risk Management Practice, Navigant will speak at the Knowledge Congress’ webcast entitled: “CFPB Examinations of Mortgage Servicing Transfers: Understanding the Proposed Guidance.” This event is scheduled for August 23, 2013 from 12:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. (ET).

Event Synopsis:

The issuance of CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Bureau) Bulletin 2013-01 earlier this year marks stepped up efforts to counter mortgage servicing transfer problems and address consumer protection concerns. Under the proposed guidance, CFBP will conduct examinations and continuous monitoring of servicing transfer to determine whether or not the mortgage-related transactions entered into by servicers (banks and nonbanks) are in compliant with consumer finance laws. The new regulations will also require servicers to submit documentation on how to address risk management and they will require enhanced procedures in order to comply with the transfer-related aspects recently issued servicing rules which are set to take effect in January 2014.

In light of this unprecedented change, finance executives, compliance officers and attorneys who practice in the mortgage industry and related segments must have a complete understanding of the proposed guidance. A panel of thought leaders and experienced practitioners organized by The Knowledge Group will offer a substantive discussion from a 360-degree perspective regarding this significant and game changing law. The speakers will present their opinions in a two-hour Live Webcast which will be concluded by a Live Q&A session.
