In Their Own Words
"I'm glad we joined AARMR. Our membership has already proven to be invaluable." (Statement made during 4th month of membership.)
Rhys Rogers.
Securities Examiner Supervisor
Arkansas Securities Department
"Supervision of the mortgage industry is one the most interesting regulatory challenges facing us today. Regulating this industry in today's financial environment would be next to impossible without the help and benefit AARMR provides through the cooperative efforts of member regulators. From day one of its existence, one of AARMR's primary goals has been, and will continue to be providing a forum for the exchange and sharing of information and ideas among and between both regulators and the industry. The value of this cooperation is priceless."
E. J. Face, Jr. Commissioner of Financial Institutions
Virginia
"My experience as an affiliate member of AARMR has been an extremely
fruitful one both personally and on behalf of the members of the Mortgage
Banker Association of New Jersey/League of Mortgage Lenders. AARMR has
afforded me the opportunity to interrelate with regulators from various
states providing me with meaningful insights as to contemporary regulatory
trends. The opportunity to better understand the way in which regulators
perceive those issues of concern to the industry is invaluable as is the
ability to provide our own insights to the regulators on crucial issues. In
sum, AARMR has been a rewarding and valuable experience for me and I would
strongly recommend that anyone in the industry or representing those within
the industry join the Association."
E. Robert Levy
Executive Director & Counsel
The Mortgage Bankers Association of New Jersey
"The most important benefit of being a member of AARMR is that you meet
regulators from other states and can set up a network of regulators in
surrounding states as well as across the country. This network can
immeasurably facilitate the exchange of information as well as multi-state
enforcement actions against problem mortgage companies. I doubt that a week
goes by that I do not find the need to contact a regulator in another
state."
George Kinsel
Assistant Commissioner
Maryland Department of Labor, Licensing, and Regulation
"I found the training session to be most illuminating during the round table discussion. I made notes of things I was curious about, and throughout the remaining days my questions were answered. I came home with a list of "keepers"-ideas to try or at least explore -and some good networking contacts for the future. I'd like to be able to send/bring more of my staff next year."
