42 Tips on Surviving a CFPB Examination First-day letters. Frequent document request items. Evaluate and address customer complaints. Possible indicators of compliance problems. Have an examination plan in place before the CFPB arrives. Separate policy/procedure for handling examinations. Designate an Examination Manager or Examination Liaison. 42
43 Surviving a CFPB Investigation/Enforcement Action: What to do and not do when the gov t comes calling Know the rules: Must be familiar with the examination policies and informal guidelines of the regulators. Involve counsel immediately: Comments in exit interview or supervisory letter. Protection of privilege and document control. Review comparable enforcement actions: What remedies have the regulators sought in the past? Consider corrective action. Do not overreact: Sometimes more regulators/enforcement counsel are brought than are necessary Shock and Awe! Know the players: Learn the relative authority and roles of the supervisory staff. Partner with local examiners to avoid escalation. The examiners do not just go away remember their unique role. Call Reed Smith!!! RS 43
