(6) Quality Control- Credit

On a monthly basis Quality Control selects a sample of loans to audit from the total population of funded loans from the previous month for each origination channel. Agency guidelines require a formal post-closing Quality Control process and are satisfied with either a random 10% or a statistical sampling methodology. GMAC Mortgage Quality Control employs a statistical sampling model that provides a 95% confidence level that findings inferred to the overall population are accurate to a 2% margin of error over a 12-month period. In addition to the statistical sample, Quality Control makes additional targeted discretionary loan selections to address identified trends or other high risk areas. Quality Control will include a targeted discretionary sample of loans sold to GMAC bank within the overall sample of loans for each origination channel.

Technology – Quality Control employs an audit software application to sample loans, record and track findings, and report audit results. Cogent Economics Audit Software, marketed by Cogent Economics, meets the requirements for statistical sampling.

Audit Procedures – Closed loan post-funding review- performed by Quality Control tests each audited file for compliance with investor and company loan programs, underwriting guidelines and policies and procedures as well as fraud detection. Pre-funded review- performed by Quality Control tests the above on a targeted selection of loans prior to funding. Cogent software records, tracks, and reports audit results.

Reporting – Quality Control issues monthly management reports to report overall audit results for each origination channel within 60 days of the end of a production month. Quality Control will prepare a special report for GMAC Bank to report findings from all origination channel audits of loans sold to GMAC Bank.
