Even as the immediate shock of the COVID-19 pandemic receded, 2021 was anything but “normal” for the consumer finance industry. State and federal programs implemented in response to the pandemic’s economic disruptions began to expire or be lifted‒most notably, eviction and foreclosure moratoria and forbearance programs‒and new regulations on debt collection, payday lending, and credit reporting took effect. At the same time, a new Presidential administration took office and many senior federal appointees made clear that consumer protection would be a top priority.

Topics include:

  • Federal Legislation and Regulation
  • New Administration, New CFPB
  • Changes in the OCC
  • FTC Updates
  • State Legislation
  • Litigation
  • Data Privacy Snapshot
  • Looking Ahead
