Pursuant to the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (FACTA), the Federal Trade Comission has designed the so called "Red Flag Rule," which requires creditors to have developed an Identity Theft Prevention Program to identify, detect and respond to signs of possible identity theft related their borrowers.

As it is possible that this rule may apply to AT financial loan programs, NATTAP offers connections, additional information, and sample policies, to help you assure compliance.

Enforcement of the Red Flag Rule is set to commence November 1, 2009.
