While the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is the principal federal regulator responsible for administering, interpreting, and enforcing the federal consumer financial laws, the states have concurrent authority to sue under those same federal laws - in addition to enforcing their own consumer financial laws, some of which are arguably more far-reaching than the federal laws. Two states that have historically taken the lead in consumer financial protection are California and New York, both of which shows early signs of becoming even more active during the second Trump administration.
Join us to discuss the consumer financial protection powers, priorities, and latest actions of the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, the California Department of Justice, the Office of the New York State Attorney General, and the New York Department of Financial Services, along with what consumer financial enforcement we expect from the federal consumer financial regulators – the CFPB and the FTC – in the next four years.
