Social media has become a critical marketing and customer engagement channel for legal firms, banks, lenders, fintechs, mortgage companies, and consumer finance businesses. However, many organizations underestimate the fair lending, UDAAP, advertising, and reputational risks created by social media content.

A single post, ad campaign, influencer partnership, targeting strategy, or employee comment can create regulatory scrutiny if messaging appears discriminatory, misleading, exclusionary, or inconsistent with fair lending obligations.

This program provides a practical overview of how fair lending principles apply to social media marketing. Participants will learn what regulators may focus on, where institutions commonly make mistakes, and how to build defensible controls around social media promotions, targeting, monitoring, and approvals.

The session will also address real-world examples of what to post, what to avoid, and how compliance teams can partner with marketing teams without becoming the department of “no.”
