September 2023 Compliance Journal

As autumn arrives, so too does the September 2023 WBA Compliance Journal. In this edition, WBA Legal answers the frequently asked question of who signs a real estate mortgage and how to complete the WBA 428 Real Estate Mortgage. Within the “Regulatory Spotlight” section, bankers can review summaries of rules and notices recently published by various federal agencies. See the “Compliance Notes” section for important compliance-related updates, including a FinCEN alert regarding a new virtual currency investment scam, a reminder of a new resource meant to help banks handle check fraud claims more efficiently, and another update to FDIC’s Equal Housing Lender Poster.
