CFPB Releases Updated Examination Procedures

On May 5, 2015, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) released an update to its Mortgage Origination exam procedures.

The exam procedures were updated to provide financial institutions with guidance on complying with the Truth in Lending Act-Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (TILA-RESPA) integrated disclosure rule. The rule, which goes into effect August 1, requires two new disclosures – the Loan Estimate Disclosure and Loan Closing Disclosure. The updated exam procedures spell out the steps CFPB examiners will follow in performing transaction testing.
