Poll

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is completing its first six months of operation. Based on the agency’s regulatory pronouncements and announcements to date, how do you think the agency is doing?

It’s doing a good job of balancing consumer protections with regulating the mortgage industry.
It’s too early to tell what kind of job the CFPB is doing.
It’s not needed and should be closed down.
