Credit and Finance
The FTC enforces laws that protect consumers against unfair or deceptive financial practices in lending, loan servicing, debt collection, debt relief services, and other financial products and services.
Credit
If you extend credit to consumers or are shopping for credit for your business, know your rights and responsibilities.

Mortgage Lending
The FTC enforces laws that protect consumers from deceptive mortgage practices by certain kinds of lenders. If your company is within the jurisdiction of the FTC, are you complying with the law?
