Pryor Cashman Partner Jeffrey Alberts has published a client alert discussing the Trump administration’s significant move to curtail the power of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). To scale back the agency’s regulatory and enforcement reach, newly appointed Acting Director Scott Bessent has ordered a near-total freeze on CFPB operations, including rulemaking, litigation, and public communications. Key takeaways include the suspension of major rulemakings like the medical debt ban and overdraft fee cap, a halt in CFPB enforcement actions and litigation, and a dramatic shift away from the aggressive regulatory stance under the Biden administration. This development signals a major shift for the future regulatory landscape.
