There are very specific and sometimes very technical federal regulations for the advertising of financial institution products. Sometimes the rules change based upon the media used and the rules are never intuitive. There are also rules that prohibit certain marketing practices. Knowledge of federal regulations is mandatory for a compliant advertising and marketing program for a financial institution.  There are so many rules that we had to split our guides into two! 

Our Deposits guide is now on one page and contains information on how to advertise non-deposit investment products.

Our Loan products guide has been updated for the open-end advertising rules effective July 1, 2010.

Worse yet, many loan officers, staff who prepare loan documents, and internal compliance and audit personnel don't completely understand finance charges, which could be subjecting your institution to reimbursable violations and even rescission problems! Don't let this complex and confusing issue get the better of your institution! Our short, easy-to-use flowchart is the simplest way to accurately identify finance charges, and will be an invaluable tool for every member of your loan, compliance and internal audit departments.

+ Flood Insurance Quick Reference Guide
Non-Member Price: $9.95 (plus applicable sales tax)
Bulk discount is available for this product when ordering 10 or more. Click here to order.

Flood insurance has traditionally been a painful form of "water torture" for financial institutions. Regulatory enforcement of the rules has been inconsistent and sporadic. Clear, actionable information has been hard to come by. But failure to comply is not an option. With increased frequency, regulated financial institutions are being criticized by examiners and fined for failures to handle their flood insurance responsibilities properly. And if a flood disaster ever hits your loan portfolio, the cost of non-compliance will likely be magnified tenfold by the lawsuits from soggy property owners who blame your institution for their uninsured or under-insured losses.

Our Flood Insurance Quick Reference Guide is an essential tool for lenders, auditors, and compliance personnel who need to sort through the often confusing flood insurance rules on their way to making safe and sound lending decisions.

Bulk discount is available for this product when ordering 10 or more. Click here to order.

Make sure you are doing what you need to do to keep your institution out of harms way. Understand with absolute certainty that the examiners will look closely at your insiders' loan transactions and deposit accounts during every examination, and that errors on insider relationships will not go unnoticed. More important, if an examiner sees that your management will not comply with the federal regulations governing their own loans, that is a pretty bright red flag that things may be amiss elsewhere. Regulation O compliance therefore is critical to keeping your institution out of regulatory harm's way! Our new QRG will help make Regulation O's mission critical rules understandable and easier to comply with.

This one page, laminated guide details each of the requirements of Regulation O that apply to each category of insider. It also provides plain English definitions of each of the terms used in Regulation O so that there can be no confusion who the various rules apply to.

This guide is an indispensable tool for compliance, audit, and lending personnel who are responsible for originating, servicing, auditing, or quality assurance of loans made to insiders. This guide would also be a valuable tool for your executive officers and each member of your Board of Directors.
