🎃 SOCIAL MEDIA SCARIES - Week 1 🎃
Once again, as spooky season rolls around, here at ActiveComply, we're sharing real findings from our Wall of Shame folder - real social media posts captured in our system that highlight the darker side of social media in our regulated industry.

This Week's Nightmare: Brand Reputation Issues
The FFIEC has identified Reputation Risk as one of the core concerns for financial institutions on social media...and for good reason. When your loan officer posts memes with inappropriate language, racial slurs, or controversial imagery, the consequences can extend far beyond just "bad optics".

Consumers will wonder: "Will this institution discriminate against me during the loan process?"
Regulators take notice: These findings can become part of fair lending examinations. And ultimately, your brand suffers.

Brand reputation is one of your most valuable assets. Once it's compromised, it's exceedingly difficult to repair.
Don't let this be your institution's nightmare. ActiveComply monitors social media 24/7, catching risks before they become reputation disasters. Book a demo today: https://bit.ly/4pVqdzT

Stay tuned for next week's Social Media Scaries...but only if you dare. 👻
