House Republicans charged in a new report that the CFPB missed an opportunity to uncover Wells Fargo’s recently revealed insurance and GAP refund issues when it rushed to settle with the bank last year for opening unauthorized customer accounts. It also accused the bureau of withholding a memo backing its claims.
The U.S. House passed a joint resolution of disapproval under the Congressional Rule Act to block the CFPB’s rule banning mandatory arbitration clauses in finance contracts. The resolution now needs Senate approval and the president’s signature to repeal the rule, which industry insiders say could impact the sale of F&I products.
A new report released by Republican members of the House Financial Services Committee charges CFPB Director Richard Cordray with violating federal law when the regulator published its Larger Participant Rule in June 2015.
Last week, the U.S. House Financial Services Committee passed the Financial CHOICE Act, which supporters describe as an alternative to the Dodd-Frank Act. It contains language aimed at repealing the CFPB’s guidance on dealer participation, among other things.
