The Mortgage Bankers Association said the CFPB consumer database should not act as an alternative to leaving reviews on Google, Yelp or the Better Business Bureau.

Chris Willis, a partner at the law firm of Troutman Pepper Locke, said the CFPB is likely to resume investigations into pending enforcement actions.

Industry attorneys see 2025 as a “ramp up period” as certain states look to fill the federal enforcement void.

The CFPB will receive $134 million from CashCall after Supreme Court declines to take up the lender’s petition; bill moves forward in House that would remove the CFPB director’s voting ability on the FDIC board; NYC adopts new debt collection consumer protections.

As of November, only 5% of consumer gripes filed with the CFPB were closed with relief, according to Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-MA.
