- What QRM means to their business;
- When to apply risk retention;
- What is different in the re-proposal from the original proposal;
- Crucial provisions on which to provide comment to the federal agencies;
- How QM translates to QRM; and
- The cumulative impact of QM and QRM.
Speakers Ari Karen, principal of Offit Kurman, and Kristie Kully, of counsel at K&L Gates, will provide in-depth training on this proposed rule, discussing the effects of it, should it become final, and what mortgage professionals will need to do to meet the proposed QRM standards.
The recording includes the full PowerPoint presentation, along with complimentary, feature articles from October Research LLC publications, including Dodd Frank Update.
In an effort to protect secondary market investors, the Dodd-Frank Act directs several regulators to promulgate this rule, which generally requires anyone who securitizes a loan to hold 5 percent of the risk. However, Dodd-Frank provides an exception to this requirement for loans meeting certain criteria, otherwise known as QRM. On Aug. 28, the agencies drafted a re-proposal for comment.
The comment period for this rule ends Oct. 30. Tune into this webinar for a comprehensive look at this rule and insight into the provisions of which to provide comment to the federal agencies.
