CFPB ANPR on consumer access to financial records

The CFPB announced yesterday an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPR) requesting information related to consumer access to financial records.

The CFPB is asking the public how it might most efficiently and effectively develop regulations to implement Section 1033 of the Dodd-Frank Act, which provides for consumer rights to access financial records. When consumers use financial products and services, the providers of those products and services generally accumulate data about those consumers and their use of those products and services. Consumer access to these data allow consumers to manage their financial accounts and can enhance consumers’ control of their financial matters.

Consumers may realize these benefits by authorizing third parties to access these data on their behalf and allowing those third parties to deliver new or improved financial products and services. Use cases for consumer-authorized data include personal financial management, making and receiving payments, assisting consumers with improving savings outcomes, underwriting credit, and many other services.

While consumer access to financial records can enable the development of innovative and beneficial consumer financial products, it can also present consumer risks. The Bureau’s ANPR seeks comments and information on costs and benefits of consumer data access; competitive incentives; standard-setting; access scope; consumer control and privacy; and data security and accuracy.

Comments on the ANPR will be accepted for 90 days following its publication in the Federal Register.

UPDATE ON PUBLICATION AND COMMENT DUE DATE: Published at 85 FR 71003 on November 6, 2020, in the Federal Register, with comments due by February 4, 2021.
