Seth Frotman, general counsel and senior advisor to the director at the CFPB, expressed frustrations with courts for blocking the bureau’s efforts to apply existing laws to address modern and evolving problems.

A new report released by the bureau recommended several actions state regulators can take to “mirror” recent work done by the CFPB.

MBA calls for nonbank registry delay; bureau fines remittance company; bureau sues Draper & Kramer for redlining; Pennsylvania AG sues mortgage brokers over kickback scheme.

Oversight of nonbank mortgage servicers, support for community banks and reinvigoration of federal partnerships are among state regulators’ top priorities.

The enforcement action against Lakeview/Bayview Loan Servicing puts mortgage servicers on notice that they can no longer be lax about cybersecurity compliance.

The lawsuit accuses Vanderbilt Mortgage of originating loans without making a reasonable, good faith determination of the borrower’s ability to repay the loan. The legal action is likely to be re-evaluated under a new CFPB director, according to Sheppard Mullin attorneys.

The Mortgage Firm allegedly engaged in discriminatory lending practices in predominately Black and Hispanic neighborhoods in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach metro area.

Two lawsuits and a new White House administration could delay the bureau’s plans to implement the final rule.

The two programs have been updated to promote innovation, competition, ethics and transparency.

CFPB takes separate actions against Equifax, Honda Finance, Cash App, Experian and Capital One; CFPB approves first standard-setting body; CFPB plans rulemaking concerning nonbanks; CashCall loses appeal; CFPB plans to update Regulation CC.
