Pair of CBE Speakers to Present on TCPA, FCRA Compliance at Midwest Compliance Symposium

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – A pair of CBE Companies (CBE) leaders will deliver key presentations at the Midwest Compliance Symposium Sept. 26 -28 in St. Louis.

CBE is co-hosting the Midwest Compliance Symposium for all professionals and credit originators of Financial, Telecommunications, Healthcare, Utility and Television industries.

Mike Frost, CBE Chief Compliance, Sales Officer and General Counsel, will be joined by Attorney Dale Golden of Golden Scaz Gagain, PPLC in presenting the impact of CBE’s recent Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) court victory and its impact on the credit and collections industry. In Strauss v. CBE, the court confirmed CBE’s Manual Clicker Application does not constitute an automatic telephone dialing system, therefore mitigating the expensive regulatory risk the TCPA poses for calling consumers’ cell phones.

Frost is a leader in the collection industry, frequently delivering presentations on compliance issues at industry events across the nation. In 2011 and 2012, Frost was named among the Top 25 Most Influential Collection Professionals by Collection Advisor. In 2014 he was named to the Who’s Who in Collections by the same magazine. Frost is a member of the ACA International Board of Directors and was awarded the 2014 Members’ Attorney Program designation. In 2015 Frost served on a panel for the Federal Trade Commission Debt Collection Dialogue.

Dan Rohrs, CBE Director, Compliance Officer and Counsel, will be joined by David Kaminski of Carlson & Messer LLP in presenting on the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and recent litigation and regulatory actions. They will provide guidance to stay in compliance with the FCRA rules.

Rohrs manages and oversees all of CBE’s quality assurance and compliance activities and personnel. His responsibilities include participating in the definition and development of corporate policies, procedures and programs, ensuring regulatory principles are embedded within all respective business functions and overseeing the continuous development of CBE’s compliance management system.
