Abstract: The Federal Financial Institutions Council (FFIEC), on behalf of member Federal financial institution regulatory agencies, issued a proposed guidance document, entitled Reverse Mortgage Products: Guidance for Managing Compliance and Reputation Risks, in December 2009. When finalized, it will be issued by the agencies as supervisory guidance to their respective regulated entities. The guidance incorporates existing consumer protection and other legal requirements already covered by approved information collections as well as usual and customary business practices. However, the guidance does recommend new information collections that are not covered by already approved collections of information.

Short Statement: The banking agencies expect a significant expansion in reverse mortgages in coming years because of increases in the elderly population in the United States and the number of homeowners eligible for such mortgages. However, reverse mortgages are complex loan products that, although beneficial when used appropriately, have the potential to present substantial risks to both consumers and institutions. The Reverse Mortgage Guidance addresses consumer protection concerns that raise compliance and reputation risks and sets forth supervisory expectations as to how institutions should manage those risks.
