With the abundance of new state and federal legislations, regulations, lobbying efforts and news reports, many have been left wondering where exactly everyone will end up when hundreds of new laws and regulations are imposed on multiple industries tied to the housing market. But instead of sitting back and waiting for the government to tell you what you have to do and what your processes and procedures should look like, why not begin influencing the process and tell the government how things should be done?
October Research and the staff at Dodd Frank Update hosted a very important Webinar to give industry professionals the information they need to influence lawmakers and regulatory overseers in the legislative and rulemaking process.
We recruited a national lobbyist and top compliance attorney to share information on specific things industry professionals can do and should be doing to have an effective voice on Capitol Hill and in the states. With RESPA reform, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac reform, Dodd-Frank regulations and much more underway, your business will be influenced and financially affected by what is coming in the near future. But don’t wait for the final regulation before you voice your opinion about it. By then it is too late. Make your case heard now when the new laws and regulations are still being debated.
This Webinar will tell you what you need to know about the rulemaking and legislative process and what you can do to influence that process, so that by the time the final regulation hits your doorstep, it makes sense to you, is good for the consumer and will come with a much more manageable implementation and compliance process.
The 60-minute Webinar covers the following:
Regulatory
- What is the rulemaking process?
- How can industry members get involved?
- What specific things should you do early in the process?
Legislative
- What is the legislative process?
- How can industry members get involved?
- What specific things should you do early in the process?
Our speakers use timely reform issues to address the above points and talk about how to effectively influence the regulators, how to comment on a regulation and how to make a legislative impact.
