Compliance isn't Simple

Red Flag compliance can be a daunting task... without a tool like MicroBilt Red Shield at your disposal and ComplyTraq Red Flags Training for your employees. Below is a brief overview of what Red Flags are and who is affected.

Defining Red Flags

A Red Flag is a warning signal to your company that indicates that the person applying for credit may not be who they say they are.

Understanding Compliance Requirements

• Develop and follow a clear verification process that helps spot and avoid ID theft.
• Create a written policy outlining your process and have it approved by your Board of directors.
• Apply your process to daily business practices.
• Follow your process in every transaction where credit is pulled, or where other FCRA data is accessed.

Identifying Your Responsibilities

If your company maintains financial information on consumers or accounts that are designed to process multiple payments – then you are subject to the mandate. Some examples of businesses that fall into this category are:

• Banks And Credit Unions
• Mortgage Brokers
• Equipment Leasing Dealers
• Auto and Vehicle Dealers
• Suppliers
• Debt Collectors
• Credit Card Issuers
• Utility Companies
• Telecommunications Companies
• Healthcare Companies
