This happens a lot where I currently work. My "coworkers" don't even know how to locate the regs. One asked me what BSA stood for. I think I will go back into the fetal position under my desk until the job market improves.

When I performed IA at previous FI...I almost always ask them to explain the reg being audited in their area. I believe they should atleast know the name of the reg(s) that affect their jobs and have an idea of what it means. They all became pretty familiar with the reg(s) because they knew I would never stop asking them and I made this question part of the IA.

I wasn't voted most popular...that's for sure...they thanked me in the end because some of our examiners took notes from my educated employees. smile

<<------ Compliance & Risk, BUT - IA works for me.

Swiggles, don't be so hard on IA - we just had examiners here & I had to "Train" them on several items during the exam.

ie1. The 10% tolerance for new RESPA is aggregate, not 10% for each line item (#3 through #8) of the GFE

ie2. Temporary loans are exempt from HMDA & therefore we don't have to collect GMI crazy

I'm just going to agree with the title of this thread without going into details. None of you have the time or inclination to deal with the War & Peace version of what goes on here. crazy

So I told one of them last week that one vital binder with what he needed was held by the President, so he better ask for it no later than last Thursday, as the President is out this week. of course, he didn't ask, now it has become an "I must have this today to complete the audit" situation. I told him "doesn't look like you'll have the audit completed today, does it."

It sounds like you have a particularly stupid auditor. I really like our internal auditors. They're thorough, knowledgeable and reasonable. Examiners....well that's another thread altogether!

Our internal auditors are good people (and intelligent!) Have never had a problem with any of them. They work with our schedule to minimize interference in our daily tasks.

So, Ms Diva and Ms Dukes, if I am to understand you correctly, what you are trying to say is that your IAs know your BOL screen names? wink wink

Luckily for me I am the Internal Auditor - and no one else here gets on BOL. Am I one of the lucky few in that regard? I don't have to be as careful as some of you.
