The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") listed the regulatory matters that it will
consider from October 1, 2018 to September 30, 2019.
On its official website, the CFPB explained that much of the
current rulemaking work is focused on implementing directives
mandated in the
Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act,
the
Dodd-Frank Act and other statutes. The agency said that it
intends to reconsider the
Payday, Vehicle Title, and Certain High-Cost Installment Loans
rule before the scheduled compliance date in August 2019. Further,
the CFPB will continue to conduct research and pre-rulemaking
activities regarding debt collection activities.
In addition, the CFPB said that, by March 2019, the agency
expects to issue a proposed rule on how to apply the
Fair Debt Collection Practices Act to collection practices. The
agency stated that it will also begin work in 2019 on an assessment
of the TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure Rule. The
