Next webinar: Analyzing the CFPB’s new Small Business Data Collection Rule

 

As a result of the California Reinvestment Coalition’s 2019 successful lawsuit, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) was forced to implement dormant portions of the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act requiring lenders make certain details public about their small lending activity. Compelled by this lawsuit and subsequent court order, the CFPB finally released rules on March 31, 2023.

These rules will require lenders (who meet different small business lending thresholds) to begin information collection on a staggered implementation over the next three years. Lenders with the greatest volume have a start date of October 1, 2024, and smaller volume lenders have start dates in 2025 and 2026.

Date

10 - 11:30 a.m. CT
