On April 3, 2021, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) announced the end of federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) foreclosure moratoriums on August 31, 2021. CFPB asked Banks and Lenders to consider this a heads-up and prepare to comply with upcoming regulatory changes and CFPB guidelines. All of this while ensuring a smooth outreach process for distressed borrowers from August 31 through December 31 of 2021.
There are at least 4M borrowers in forbearance who are at least 90 days behind on payments and 15-18M with the potential to realize lower rates. The bottom line is that the CFPB and FHFA want Banks and Lenders to go above and beyond to accommodate these borrowers.
A solution for near-term imperatives and long-term transformation:
In preparation for the upcoming changes, Banks need to implement tools and processes that address the CFPB's requirements repeatably, transparently, and with a high degree of substantiation.
ServiceNow and INRY are uniquely qualified to help lenders meet these requirements in a timely and efficient manner.
