Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
An optional early step in CFPB rulemaking. Used to get initial public input on certain key aspects of potential rulemakings.
The CFPB proposes a narrowly tailored amendment to Regulation E to ensure that consumers sending a remittance transfer have information about the types of inquiries that may be most efficient to direct to the CFPB and the State agency that licenses or charters their remittance transfer provider.
The CFPB proposes to prohibit covered financial institutions from charging nonsufficient funds (NSF) fees on payment transactions that are instantaneously declined because such fees would constitute an abusive practice.
This notice proposes changes to the Remittance Rule to mitigate the expiration of an exception that allows insured institutions to estimate certain costs associated with sending a remittance transfer to increase the normal course of business safe harbor.
