CFPB Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on Identity Theft and Financial Abuse
On December 12, 2024, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) issued an advanced notice of proposed rulemaking (“ANPR”) to address the financial consequences of identity theft and financial abuse, specifically targeting issues related to domestic violence and elder abuse. This ANPR initiates the process of gathering public comments and information to inform future rulemaking under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) and Regulation V.
The CFPB’s press release highlights the significance of this rulemaking effort as part of a broader initiative to protect vulnerable populations from financial harm. The Bureau aims to mitigate the adverse effects of identity theft, particularly in contexts where domestic violence and elder abuse exacerbate financial instability and exploitation.
