Flood insurance compliance looks straightforward – until your next exam tells a different story.
From determinations, monitoring, and contents
coverage to private policies, force-placement, and escrow, lenders are tripping
over the same “simple” rules and racking up costly violations year after year.
This webinar will break down the most common problem areas examiners are
targeting right now and show you how to spot, fix, and prevent flood mistakes
before they turn into findings and fines.

WEBINAR DETAILS
Compliance with the flood insurance regulations
should be easy – determine where the structure is (assuming it’s insurable),
and if it's in a high-risk flood zone, require insurance. Simple, right? Why
then are there so many violations and penalties? The answer, of course, is that
this seemingly simple issue has many complexities. The rules have been around
since 1996, yet examiners continue to cite numerous violations and fines.
There are many significant issues out there, and
it’s easy to run afoul of the requirements. In this webinar, we'll concentrate
on them, including determinations, monitoring, contents coverage, private
policies, amount of coverage, force-placement, and escrow requirements, among
others. We’ll devote special attention to those issues that typically cause
lenders problems, as well as those that are the focus of many a regulatory
violation and fine.
