CFPB Enforcement: Reports of its Demise are Greatly Exaggerated

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has been gradually increasing enforcement activity throughout 2019. With a full year under Kathy Kraninger’s belt, the recent appointment of Bryan Schneider as the Head of the Supervision, Enforcement and Fair Lending Division (SEFL), and the expected appointment of a new Enforcement Director, the CFPB will ramp up investigations and enforcement actions in 2020. In this webinar, we will discuss recent enforcement-related developments at the CFPB and look ahead to the Bureau’s potential areas of focus. Topics include:

• Trends in recent enforcement investigations and actions, including a focus on redlining by non-bank mortgage lenders
• New SEFL Associate Director
• The expected new Enforcement Director
• Enforcement priorities and other areas of potential focus in 2020
