Event Synopsis:
Upon its effectivity, the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) has been regulating the consumer reporting industry and has been creating disclosure obligations on users of consumer reports to ensure a fair, timely and accurate credit information reporting. However, despite it covering a wide scope of industries and consumers, FCRA does not apply to commercial transactions more specifically to those involved in agricultural credit.

Under the new administration, modifications and alterations are expected to come. To avoid potential risks and pitfalls, companies, consumers and industry watchers should keep abreast of the developments surrounding this significant topic.

In this live webcast, The Knowledge Group, along with a remarkable professional will go beyond the basics and provide the audience with an in-depth analysis of the recent trends, developments and updates on the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The speaker will also present a sneak peek of what lies ahead the FCRA landscape.

Scope and Limitation
Common Risks and Pitfalls
Recent Court Decisions
Trends, Developments and Updates
FCRA in the 2018 Landscape: A Sneak Peek
