Written by Jerod Moyer | Dec 17, 2025 2:47:45 PM

Regulatory agencies are in the business of protecting the rights of your customers and preventing harm. Therefore, they put a lot of value on complaints, whether they are reported to the Agencies directly or those that you receive. Complaints provide information and information helps shine a light on things that may need to be addressed. The Federal Reserve’s Federal Consumer Compliance Outlook (Second Issue 2024), looked at complaint programs as a whole and outlined the benefits of having a formal complaint program. It outlined five common elements of formal complaint management programs. These include:

  1. Defining a Complaint
  2. Collecting and Tracking Complaints
  3. Classifying and Responding to Complaints
  4. Addressing Complaints and Root Cause Analysis
  5. Analyzing Aggregated Complaint Data
