Replaced a requirement for annual reporting with a notification requirement where servicers must inform the superintendent they are servicing loans in New York and comply with specified regulations.
ELIGIBILITY
Added an exemption from banking law licensing provisions for exempt organizations that function as student loan servicers.
SCOPE
Changed the referenced law from the financial services law to the banking law, altering the legal framework governing the regulation.
