ICBA said it supports the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s proposed amendments to its mortgage-servicing rules, which the bureau issued following ICBA and industry advocacy.

 

One proposed amendment would permit small servicers to service seller-financed mortgages in which the bank is not the creditor and to retain their small-servicer status, which ICBA and community bankers advocated in bureau meetings. ICBA said this change would allow small servicers to continue serving clients while being reasonably compensated.

 

The association raised concerns with a proposal that would require extensive tracking of successors in interest. ICBA asked the CFPB to exempt small servicers from any prescriptive requirements in this area and to provide clear guidance regarding who can be a successor in interest.
