A new executive order from President Trump aimed at increasing access to mortgage credit calls for changes to several of the CFPB’s mortgage rules and regulations.

Sheila Oliver, deputy commissioner at the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, advised mortgage companies to have strong monitoring systems to verify per diem interest after loan closing and detect any adverse events impacting their systems.

If enacted as proposed, the rule would impose substantial regulatory requirements onto buy now, pay later providers.

The regulator said the Fair Housing Home Loan Data System regulation was obsolete and largely duplicative of and inconsistent with other data collection regimes.

Consumer advocates called on HUD to withdraw the proposal, noting that if finalized, it would undermine the agency’s enforcement of the Fair Housing Act’s protections against unlawful discrimination.

The Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism claimed that a Washington state special purpose credit program violated a clause of the 14th Amendment by using race-based criteria for eligibility.

Before submitting a complaint against a credit reporting agency about inaccurate or incomplete information, borrowers will have to first dispute the information directly with the credit or consumer reporting agency.

The National Consumer Law Center said the proposals will reduce price transparency, create an unlevel playing field and will make homeownership more expensive for consumers.

The new rule codifies financial institutions’ existing obligations under the state antidiscrimination law.

President Trump wants Congress to enact a temporary 10% cap on credit card interest rates, while CFPB actions seem to be causing rates to go up.
