Tired of the growing number of new and updated regulations and the regulatory burden it is placing on you and your staff? Not sure where to go to obtain fast, accurate answers and concise information regarding consumer compliance and other regulations affecting your operations?
Compliance Plus, Inc. has been providing compliance training, consulting and answers to financial institutions for over 16 years. There are a number of services to choose from:
Compliance Answers
For a low monthly fee, your staff can e-mail or call for answers to pressing compliance questions – from account ownership, decedent accounts, Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering issues, consumer and mortgage lending and so much more. As new or revised regulations are introduced, clients also receive plain English summaries of the changes along with guidance on how to proceed implementing the changes. To request a sample summary, e-mail Compliance Training
2-hour to full-day training sessions designed to impart participants with the knowledge they need to do their jobs in compliance with laws, rules and regulations. Class materials double as resource manuals long after the course is over. Webinars are good, but sometimes the in person approach is needed to gauge whether employees are really understanding the topic – from an instructor with over 23 years of experience in both compliance and training – on top of 5 years of experience working in financial institutions.

Website Compliance Reviews
Reasonable rates for reviewing your institution’s website for compliance with consumer protection laws and regulations. This review will also touch on functionality issues, readability and ease of use.
Marketing Compliance
Timely reviews of marketing and advertising pieces for compliance with various laws and regulations such as Truth in Savings, Truth in Lending, Lottery and Sweepstakes requirements, and Unfair and Deceptive and Abusive Acts and Practices.
Compliance Consulting
On-site assistance with putting together, maintaining or evaluating a Compliance Management System (on the regulator’s hot list this coming year) or a Complaint Resolution System (also a biggie), evaluation of the current state of regulatory compliance or just an evaluation of a particular area of concern.
