Create opportunities with CLA
Compliance executives cannot afford to rely on anecdotal interpretations of laws, which are subject to sub-rules and transaction-based nuances. We help financial institutions manage compliance monitoring with ongoing tracking and reports designed to show trends by any business channel, region, division, or designated area of responsibility. Our team continually tracks legislative changes and keeps you up to date. Our services are available on a recurring or project basis, and can be completed remotely using processes audited annually under Service Organization Control (SOC-2) standards.
Our CLA mortgage advisory services division’s proprietary software program allows us to provide detailed exception reports, roll-up summaries, and trending metrics to suit investor or regulatory needs. We know information becomes aged — so the sooner deficiencies are uncovered, the sooner process improvement can be put into place. We’ll provide meaningful findings reports that promote rapid remediation and document curing.
