The 2020 budget would add the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and FSOC to congressional appropriations, charge lenders for FHA upgrades and require universities to have skin in the game on student loans.

Following a congressional mandate, the consumer bureau solicited public feedback on Property Assessed Clean Energy loans, which have been deemed risky by the Federal Housing Administration.

The effort comes more than a year after Republicans successfully blocked a CFPB rule that would have banned mandatory arbitration clauses in financial contracts.

The bureau wants to further remove the threat of legal liability for firms that test products benefiting consumers, but the attorneys general say the agency cannot provide immunity from state law.

In a major victory for small-dollar lenders, the agency plans to rescind underwriting requirements that were the centerpiece of the rule drafted by a Democratic appointee.

Absent some policy change, nearly a third of the loans backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could be in violation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's Qualified Mortgage rule in two years.

Chris D’Angelo, the CFPB's associate director of supervision, enforcement and fair lending, is leaving the bureau after eight years to become a chief deputy attorney general in New York state.

The company has filed a request with a federal judge in Pennsylvania for a summary judgment in two counts against it, accusing the bureau of failing to provide evidence.

Acting Ginnie Mae President Michael Bright will leave his post on Jan. 16 and will no longer seek confirmation to be the permanent head of the mortgage secondary market agency.

In her New Year’s message, CFPB Director Kathy Kraninger called on the agency to ensure that consumers are treated fairly and that “the marketplace is innovating.”

The biggest question is whether new CFPB Director Kathy Kraninger will deviate from the pro-industry policies of her predecessor, or bring continuity.

Kathy Kraninger's unexpected decision is small, but symbolically important. Here's why.

A U.S. District judge in Scranton denied the student lender's motion to dismiss the suit.

The newly sworn-in director’s first public remarks seemed to contrast with the approach of her predecessor, Mick Mulvaney, who at times questioned the role of the agency.

Democrats on the House Financial Services Committee are expected to shine a spotlight on Trump-appointed regulators, but that light might shine brightest on one agency in particular.

A motion to limit debate on the nominee to run the consumer bureau passed along strictly party lines, setting the stage for her to be confirmed as early as next week.

Seth Frotman oversaw the $1.5 trillion student loan market for the Trump administration. Now he's starting his own watchdog group to do what he says the government won't, and he's poaching former colleagues to do it.

Kathy Kraninger, who may get a confirmation vote as early as this week, has suggested a similar vision to that of the agency’s current acting chief. But some see signs she could bring a different approach to the job.

The Massachusetts senator said the government’s findings bolster allegations that the servicer steered borrowers into expensive student loan forbearance plans.

The agency alleges the subprime auto lender violated consumer finance laws by misrepresenting the level of guaranteed insurance protection.
