American Web Loan Earns Online Lenders Alliance Accreditation

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK--(Marketwired - Jul 31, 2013) - American Web Loan has received accreditation by the Online Lenders Alliance (OLA). A leading provider of online lending products nationwide, American Web Loan is among the first members to earn OLA accreditation. 

The OLA Accreditation program is designed as a compliance audit to test a lender's adherence to federal consumer financial services law requirements and OLA Best Practices. Companies who pass all the tests, as determined by an independent third-party assessor, receive the OLA Accreditation seal to recognize that their practices are consistent with the requirements of federal consumer financial services laws and OLA Best Practices.

"Through our accreditation program, OLA further ensures that consumers can trust that the businesses they are working with are committed to compliance with our industry's highest standards," said Lisa McGreevy, President and CEO of the Online Lenders Alliance.

"The recently-inaugurated OLA Accreditation program is the latest program in which OLA members can actively demonstrate their commitment to the highest industry standards and best practices. We are proud to have earned this significant accreditation and look forward to continuing to uphold every rule and regulation that comprises the OLA's Best Practices," said James Hopper, Vice President of Operations for American Web Loan.
