SAFE Act Reviews

Build a stronger SAFE Act compliance program with confidence.

Under the Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act, or SAFE Act, financial institutions must ensure both the institution and its individual mortgage loan originators are properly registered with the federal registry and maintain that registration. SAFE Act reviews assess your policies and procedures to confirm they align with this regulatory requirement and support ongoing compliance.

The SAFE Act uses the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System and Registry to handle federal registration. Its purpose is to improve information flow among regulators, increase accountability and tracking for mortgage loan originators, strengthen consumer protections, and support anti-fraud efforts. With extensive experience conducting SAFE Act reviews, we help ensure your SAFE Act program is compliant.
