| The conventional wisdom about [tag]mortgage-lending disclosures[/tag] is that the government should formulate and enforce [tag]disclosure rules[/tag] because that ensures uniformity of disclosures across the market. I shared that belief for a long time. But if the government-required disclosures are useless or worse, which is the case, uniformity does not help borrowers. Indeed, poor disclosures can be worse than no disclosures because they lull borrowers into a false sense of security. |  |
