Highlights
On December 22, 2009 the Federal Reserve and the FTC published 202 pages of final rules to implement the risk-based pricing provisions in section 311 of the FACT Act. This webinar explains the new rules.
This final piece of the FACT Act, which has been unfolding since December 2003, requires all financial institutions to adopt new policies and new procedures to comply with the new requirements. The final rules, effective on January 1, 2011:
· Require a creditor to provide a risk-based pricing notice to a consumer when the creditor uses a consumer report to grant or extend credit to the consumer on terms that are materially less favorable than the most favorable terms available to a substantial proportion of consumers from or through that creditor.
· Provide for two alternative means by which creditors can determine when they are offering credit on terms that are materially less favorable.
· Include certain exceptions to the general rule, including exceptions for creditors that provide a consumer with a disclosure of the consumer's credit score in conjunction with additional information that provides context for the credit score disclosure.
