First American Data & Analytics’ RegsData® Compliance Solution Now Integrated with MeridianLink® Mortgage LOS

Key Terms

tila regulatory

The Truth in Lending Act (TILA) is a U.S. law that requires lenders to present clear, standardized information about credit offers—including interest rates, fees and the total cost—so borrowers can compare loans easily. For investors, TILA affects how banks and consumer lenders price products, manage compliance costs and handle legal risk; think of it as a nutrition label for loans that reduces surprises that can hurt a lender’s earnings.

SANTA ANA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- First American Data & Analytics, a leading national provider of property-centric information, risk management and valuation solutions, and a division of First American Financial Corporation (NYSE: FAF), today announced that its powerful loan-level regulatory compliance tool, RegsData^®, is now fully integrated into the MeridianLink^® Mortgage loan origination system (LOS). This integration provides lenders with seamless, one-click access to compliance monitoring directly within the MeridianLink LOS environment, helping ensure loans meet regulatory and investor requirements before closing.

“Compliance is a moving target with rules and requirements constantly evolving at the federal, state and local levels. RegsData takes the guesswork out of compliance by regularly tracking regulatory changes and delivering an automated solution that flags potential compliance issues in real time,” said Jennifer Menard, senior director of product management. “With this integration into MeridianLink, we’re delivering convenience, speed and peace of mind that every loan meets the latest requirements before it closes.”

RegsData is a robust, interactive solution that compares loan data against current laws, regulations and investor guidelines. It alerts users to potential compliance violations and fee calculation issues early in the loan process, allowing lenders to correct issues before the loan is originated, ultimately reducing risk and supporting faster, more confident loan closings.

Key benefits of the integration include:

• Automatic compliance checks flagging issues related to TRID, QM, TILA, HOEPA and other regulatory violations, eliminating the need for manual review and optimizing workflows.
• Fully embedded functionality that enables users to review and act on compliance results without leaving the LOS environment.
• Quick and efficient ordering process with reports that are automatically delivered to the eDocs repository.
• Interactive PDF reports with clickable summaries linking directly to detailed result sections.
• Override capabilities for approved users to adjust fee treatments and condition tolerances.
• Historical access to prior orders and compliance reports.

"We’re excited to expand our long-standing partnership with First American Data & Analytics,” said JP Kelly, senior vice president of mortgage, MeridianLink. “The integration with their RegsData compliance solution provides MeridianLink lenders with seamless, one-click access to compliance monitoring to help ensure all loans meet regulatory and investor requirements before closing. We’re adding value for our MeridianLink Mortgage customers by supporting faster, more confident loan closings, and we’re expanding our MeridianLink Marketplace with solutions that drive origination efficiency and compliance.”
