Highlights:
A group of six federal regulatory agencies (CFPB, FDIC, Federal Reserve, NCUA, FHFA, and the OCC) is seeking comment for its proposed rule for Quality Control Standards for Automated Valuation Models. The proposed rule would require mortgage originators and secondary marketing issuers to adopt policies, practices, procedures and control systems surrounding the use of AVMs used to determine collateral value. The intent of the rule will be to instill a higher level of confidence in the AVM collateral value estimates, protect against data manipulation and errors, potential conflicts of interest, and fair lending and anti-discrimination risk.
