2008 FACT Act Seminar
Recently the bank regulatory agencies published final regulations that implement Section 114 (Red Flag Guidelines) and Section 315 (Reconciling Address Discrepancies) of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act (FACT Act).

Those who use credit reports also need policies and procedures to use when they receive a notice of address discrepancy from a consumer reporting agency.
Topics covered will include how to develop the required Program, how to conduct and document required risk assessment, the five categories of red flags, how to detect and mitigate identity theft and the responsibilities of the Board and senior management.
The IBA will offer two seminars dedicated to this topic to educate compliance officers, auditors, security officers and operations personnel. Choose from two dates and locations: May 7 in Cedar Rapids or May 8 in Des Moines.
