Webcast tomorrow on CFPB expectations

NAFCU is reminding credit unions that the association will be hosting a webcast tomorrow previewing what the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has in store for them in 2013.

The webcast, "CFPB Update: Credit Union Expectations for 2013," hosted by Jonathan Pompan of Venable LLP, a Washington, D.C., law firm, will provide participants with an overview of the CFPB's supervisory and enforcement efforts for 2013. An explanation of how the CFPB's actions could significantly impact credit unions will be a key focus of the webcast.

More specifically, the webcast will examine:

  • the international remittance rule (effective Feb. 7 until CFPB finalizes its intent to extend that by 90 days);
  • a proposed change in Regulation Z's treatment of spousal income in credit-card applications; and
  • mortgage lending and disclosure rules.

The webcast, which runs from 2 pm to 3:30 pm Eastern, is open to NAFCU members and nonmembers. Learn more.

NAFCU would also like to remind credit unions that a 45 percent discount is available for a limited time on NAFCU's 2013 Unlimited Webcast Subscription Package, which includes: over 20 content-filled webcasts, 24 hour access to each webcast, unlimited access for your entire credit union for the full 2013 calendar year, essential compliance education, a cd of each webcast and more.
