- A new late charges methodology option has been added to the Loan Servicing module to address California’s definition of late charges pyramiding. This new methodology follows the guidelines as set forth in California Civil Code 2954.4 for determining if a payment should be assessed a late fee. This methodology will not assess a late fee on an otherwise delinquent payment if a previous payment was received within the grace period.
- The ABS Multipurpose Laser Cheques for the Trust Accounting and Loan Servicing modules have been redesigned to meet Canada’s CPA specifications. The new cheque specifications are a key part of an industry-wide plan to modernize Canada’s cheque clearing system through image technology. The new specifications are designed to ensure that high-quality images can be captured from the cheques for use by financial institutions and their customers, and to make cheque processing more efficient.
- The latest revisions to the Regulation Z disclosure have been implemented and integrated into the loan origination document packages.
