California Code, Financial Code - FIN § 22159.5

(a) The commissioner may, as the commissioner deems necessary, require licensees to provide reports concerning their residential mortgage loan servicing activities, including, but not limited to, information similar to that collected in connection with the Mortgage Servicers Survey, first published by the Department of Financial Protection and Innovation in December 2007. The commissioner is additionally authorized to seek and accept information provided on a voluntary basis by residential mortgage loan servicers not subject to the commissioner's jurisdiction. The commissioner shall post only aggregated survey results on the department's internet website, and shall note the number of loan servicers submitting data included in the aggregated totals and the estimated percentage of outstanding mortgage loans to Californians that are serviced by these loan servicers, to the extent information on the number of outstanding loans is available from a reliable source. Nothing in this section is intended to reduce or change the commissioner's authority to request and demand reports under Sections 22150 and 22159.

(b) For purposes of this section, “mortgage loan servicing activity” means receiving more than three installment payments of principal, interest, or other amounts placed in escrow, pursuant to the terms of a mortgage loan, and performing services relating to that receipt or the enforcement of its receipt, on behalf of the holder of the note evidencing that loan.
