What the CFPB is doing
Monitoring servicemember complaints
We have analyzed tens of thousands of complaints from servicemembers, veterans, and military family members to ensure we’re matching our efforts with their priorities.
Making student loans more affordable
Servicemembers have special options that could save them money and make it easier to pay off their student loans. We’ve worked closely with the Department of Education to ensure servicemembers get their student loan benefits.
Protecting servicemembers from military allotments abuses
We worked with DOD to protect servicemembers from abuses related to the military’s discretionary allotment system.
Comparing credit records of young servicemembers and civilians
How do credit records co-evolve with military service? This analysis compares young servicemembers based on the age at which they join active duty and the time they spend on active duty.
Enforcement actions
The CFPB has recovered millions in relief for servicemembers, veterans, and military families from companies that targeted them with scams or illegal practices.
