3. FinTech meets RETech

4. Lending and Regulation
The Dodd‐Frank Act & the CFPB have
placed increased emphasis on a lender’s
responsibilities for ensuring that third‐party
vendors are complying with
consumer financial laws to avoid
consumer harm.

5. Third Party Service Providers
The long tail of the CFPB extends to
third‐party service providers :
Title Insurance Companies
Real Estate Attorneys
Real Estate Agents
even Inspectors…
Processes and controls need to be
in place to maintain compliance.

6. Title Companies
Top areas of concern:
• Closing Disclosure Form
Replaces HUD‐1 in non‐commercial financed purchase
• Three/”Seven” Day Rule:
waiting period after the final disclosure is received
by the consumer.
Increased liability for accuracy:
Title needs to work with lenders early
and often for final numbers and approvals

7. Data Security vs. Process Security
Data Security:
• Cloud
• SOC II
• ISO
Process Security = Regulatory Compliance
• Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)
• Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)
• Federal Reserve Bank (Fed)
• National Credit Union Administration (NCUA)
• Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC)
• State (ex: Office of Financial Regulation)

8. Securing NPPI
NPPI: Non‐public personal information
Private
Secure
Minimizing
Human Error
Secret
Encrypt at REST

Automate recognition of NPPI ‐ “Sniffer”
