Overview of the webinar

Unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts and practices (UDAAPs) can cause significant financial injury to consumers, erode consumer confidence and undermine the financial marketplace. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, it is unlawful for any provider of consumer financial products or services or a service provider to engage in any unfair, deceptive, or abusive act or practice. The Act also provides the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) with rule-making authority and, with respect to entities within its jurisdiction, enforcement authority to prevent unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices in connection with any transaction with a consumer for a consumer financial product or service, or the offering of a consumer financial product or service. The CFPB has been very aggressive in pursuing UDAAP enforcement actions against a wide range of financial institutions. The increased focus on unfair, deceptive or abusive acts or practices (UDAAP) requires all financial institutions to formalize and document their UDAAP procedures. This webinar will outline the “unfair”, “deceptive” and “abusive” tests and provide specific, practical steps to help banks and credit unions analyze and manage UDAAP risk.
