Implementing the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Regulation F

This program provides a review of both parts of the final Regulation F. The rules apply directly to financial institutions if the institution is collecting a debt owed to a third party or is collecting its own debt, but is using a different name. UDAAP and state law make FDCPA principles directly applicable to a financial institutions collecting its own debt. Financial institutions also have vendor management issues that arise when using third-party collectors. Failure to follow the rule when collecting debt in any of these scenarios can result in violations of Regulation F, UDAAP, or state law.
