1 STREET CAPITAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION STREET CAPITAL HOLDINGS CORPORATION STREET CAPITAL MORTGAGE CORPORATION (Collectively referred to as Street Capital) CONFLICT OF INTEREST AND MORTGAGE SUITABILITY POLICY FOR MORTGAGE LENDERS, MORTGAGE BROKERAGES, BROKERS, AGENTS AND ADMINISTRATORS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE EMPLOYEES IN DEALING WITH STREET CAPITAL January 2010
2 STREET CAPITAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST AND MORTGAGE SUITABILITY POLICY FOR MORTGAGE LENDERS, MORTGAGE BROKERAGES, BROKERS, AGENTS AND ADMINISTRATORS Context Street Capital requires that all of the mortgage lenders, mortgage brokerages, mortgage brokers, agents and administrators with which it does business (Business Associates) observe the highest standards of conduct and ethics. In all aspects of the undertaking of business with Street Capital, compliance with the disclosure, conflicts of interest, and mortgage suitability guidelines from the appropriate regulatory body is expected. The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance to the Business Associates dealing with Street Capital, regarding Street Capital's expectations regarding these policies. Conflict of Interest A conflict of interest will arise whenever a Business Associate that Street Capital deals through, has, or would reasonably be perceived to have an incentive to put its interests ahead of the interests of a borrower, or where applicable, a lender or investor. If a conflict of interest is determined to have occurred, proper disclosure of said conflict should be made by the relevant Business Associate. The disclosure must also meet the disclosure requirements of the relevant mortgage brokers' legislation and any regulations in connection therewith. Each Business Associate should have its own Conflict of Interest Policy and should take reasonable steps to monitor compliance with such policy. Examples of Potential Conflicts The following are examples which should be carefully considered as potentially leading to conflict of interest: 1. The mortgage brokerage/broker/agent is related to the appraiser. 2. The lender is related to the mortgage broker/agent. 3. The lender is a family member of the borrower. 4. When the mortgage brokerage/broker/agent is also a lender. 5. If the mortgage broker or his/her spouse uses a self-directed RRSP to fund the mortgage for the borrower. 6. Receiving travel points, free holidays, or other incentives that are normally not available. 7. Favouring a lender due to monetary reasons. 8. When a mortgage broker/agent acts for both the borrower and lender. 9. If the mortgage broker/agent receives higher bonus commissions for working with a specific lender during a specific timeframe. 10. If the principal broker is also a real estate broker who is involved with listing and selling a property. 11. Placing business where a higher commission or gift is granted. 12. If a large portion of your business (over 50 per cent) is done exclusively with one party. 13. Sending a client to a lender because you received a free trip. 14. Accepting remuneration from both the borrower and lender without disclosure. 15. Recommending a mortgage with a higher interest rate due to a higher finder s fee. 16. Not disclosing the different rates and terms offered by banks and how you will be compensated. 17. Failure to disclose to the borrower that you received a fee from another party (lender or investor).
3 - 3 - Specific Duties If a Business Associate is faced with a potential conflict of interest, and either of these two questions is answered positively, disclosure should be made by it: 1. Would the mortgage product offered be different if a potential conflict of interest did not exist? 2. Would it appear to a reasonable informed third party that Street Capital, or the relevant Business Associate has an incentive to not act in the best interest of the borrower, or where applicable, the lender or investor. The Business Associate who is subject to the conflict of interest should take the following steps for disclosure of a conflict of interest. Step1 - Determine whether a perceived or actual conflict of interest situation exists. Step 2 - If so, disclose in writing the actual or perceived conflict of interest. It should be written in a plain, brief and clear manner. If in doubt, make the disclosure. Step 3 - Be willing to explain the actual or potential conflict of interest to the borrower, lender or investor. Step 4 - Have the borrower, lender or investor acknowledge in writing the receipt of this disclosure. Step 5 - Provide a copy of the acknowledgement to the borrower, lender or investor, and retain a copy of the written disclosure, acknowledgement and any related material for the Business Associate's files. Step 6 - Provide a copy of the disclosure, the acknowledgement and any related material to Street Capital, Attention CEO, at the address found on Street Capital s website ( Any relationship or arrangement which is governed by specific regulation that constitutes a potential conflict of interest must be considered and disclosure made; examples are: (a) disclosure of a brokerage's rules; (b) disclosure of relationships with lenders; (c) fees payable by others Example of Regulatory Requirements---Ontario As an example of disclosure requirements the Ontario Regulation 188/08 - Mortgage Brokerages: Standards of Practice, at Sections 18, 19 and 21 which are set out below, demonstrate the required disclosures in Ontario, which are in addition to the disclosure of conflicts of interest as set out in this policy.
