Banks with Mortgage Divisions

Banks with mortgage divisions carry a dual advertising compliance obligation. ActiveComply® gives your compliance team centralized oversight across both, with monitoring that applies OCC, FDIC, and state banking advertising standards alongside MAP Rule and NMLS requirements. Now you can make sure nothing falls through the gap between your two regulatory environments.

The most common advertising compliance exposures for banks with mortgage divisions include:

Managing both regulatory environments manually across a distributed team is where most banks’ exam risk lives. Not in deliberate violations, but in content that was never reviewed.

  1. Account discovery profiles employee accounts across social platforms, including LOs, branch managers, and marketing staff.
  2. Continuous monitoring applies both banking advertising rules and mortgage-specific standards to content as it is published.
  3. NMLS licensing data is verified automatically across LO-produced advertising.
  4. Flagged items are routed to the appropriate reviewer based on content type: mortgage compliance or general bank compliance.
  5. Review decisions and corrective actions are documented in a single audit trail.
  6. Exam records are kept current, organized by employee, channel, and regulatory category.

Common Questions


Yes. The ActiveComply® monitoring system uses a subset of data from NMLS Consumer Access™ to provide an easy onboarding experience for all our clients. ActiveComply® Social includes licensing disclosure verification, which checks licensing data against advertising content automatically as part of the monitoring workflow. This covers the disclosure requirements most commonly cited in state exam findings.

The cost of a single exam finding in remediation, legal fees, and reputational exposure typically exceeds the annual cost of the platform. Institutions that have moved from manual monitoring also report a meaningful reduction in compliance staff hours spent on routine tasks, freeing capacity for higher-value work without adding headcount.

ActiveComply® maintains monitoring records, review decisions, and inspection documentation within the platform. Data handling practices are documented in the service agreement. Your team retains access to records throughout the term and on offboarding.
