Red Flags Mortgage Compliance

Red Flags Mortgage Compliance

Who must comply with FACTA Red Flags?

If you are a lender, broker, bank, credit union, or creditor, you must have an Identity Theft Prevention Program in place.

What is an Identity Theft Prevention Program and how do I implement it?

An Identity Theft Prevention Program must be a written plan that your company follows in the course of identifying potential red flags. Implementation includes having the printed policy and procedure as well as training all employees involved in the origination process (processors, underwriters, loan officers, etc).
