The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB" or "Bureau") is a U.S. government agency created by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The CFPB is the first federal agency tasked solely with the mission of consumer financial protection. To this end, Congress has vested it with enforcement, supervisory, and rulemaking authority. In an effort to stay apprised of significant industry changes affected by the CFPB, Burr & Forman's CFPB Update will serve as a periodic briefing on recent case law, news, and developments related to the CFPB.
