Wolters Kluwer Financial Services today announced its roster of featured speakers for the organization's 18th annual CRA & Fair Lending Colloquium, to be held in San Diego from November 2-5, 2014, at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel and Marina.

During the four-day conference, more than 70 federal regulators, attorneys, bank compliance officers and other industry experts will speak to an expected crowd of more than 500 attendees. Included in the speaker line-up are the following prominent industry regulators and figures:

• Eric S. Belsky, incoming director of the Division of Consumer and Community Affairs, Federal Reserve Board
• Carol Evans, assistant director, Division of Consumer and Community Affairs, FRB
• Grovetta N. Gardineer, deputy comptroller of Compliance Policy, Office of Comptroller of the Currency

• Mark Pearce, director, Division of Depositor and Consumer Protection, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
• Steven Rosenbaum, chief of Housing and Civil Enforcement, Department of Justice Civil Rights Division
• Sandra Thompson, deputy director of Housing Mission and Goals, Federal Housing Finance Agency

"In light of recent fair lending enforcement actions, pending regulatory changes affecting mortgage lending originations and sales, and expanded data reporting under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, the Colloquium is a valuable forum providing opportunities for substantive discussion among bankers and regulators," said Tim Burniston, executive vice president, U.S. Risk & Compliance Consulting Practice, Wolters Kluwer Financial Services. "Through the knowledge sharing and discussions that take place during this event, bankers are better prepared to navigate these changes while managing compliance and risk more effectively."

The Colloquium features nearly 30 sessions that cover a wide range of topics, such as the use of proxy data in fair lending enforcement, the status of Community Reinvestment Act reform efforts, fair lending risk in indirect auto lending, expanded HMDA data collection requirements, the use of data to understand potential harm to consumers, and strategies for finding community development opportunities.

Sponsors of the 2014 Colloquium include the American Bankers Association and Independent Community Bankers of America.
