US Federal Reserve Governor Daniel Tarullo on Wednesday said federal regulators are now trying to obtain a handle on threats of recent foreclosure problems to the financial system. During the Senate Banking Committee hearing on the alleged mishandling of foreclosure procedures by lenders,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Mr. Tarullo told legislators that mortgage banks would need to take significant investments in cleaning up home loans practices and possibly in buying back faulty mortgages.
Observers noted that the comments of the Fed official underline the issues that mortgage lenders face as they handle billions of dollars worth of foreclosures. Mr. Tarullo revealed that most of the banks do not possess the right technology or the right number of personnel to strictly follow proper and ideal foreclosure practices. He added that most of those lenders were reluctant in the past to invest in those areas, because doing so might put profitability under pressure.

Mr. Tarullo recommended that the industry should put substantial amount of investments in improving its foreclosure functions. He asked supervisors to make sure those recommended improvements would take place.

Market analysts assert that mortgage banks are now also facing the potential of incurring bigger losses, because many of their investors force them to buy back mortgage bonds. Numerous investors want the lenders to buy back ��put-backs�� worth billions of dollars in an effort to make up for the companies�� misrepresentations of underlying loans�� quality.
An oversight panel in US Congress previously estimated a $52 billion combined loss for the banking industry if it would give in to investors�� demand. Several analysts put the estimated figure at about $100 billion or more.
