Enhanced Transparency in Financial Regulation Cost-Benefit Analysis

New rules require the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) to thoroughly justify and analyze the costs and benefits of proposed regulations. This aims to ensure that new rules are necessary, do not duplicate existing ones, and do not unduly burden citizens, including small businesses.
Key points
The CFPB must publicly explain the need for new regulations and why private markets or local authorities cannot address the issue.
All proposed regulations will require a detailed assessment of costs and benefits, including impacts on small businesses and the economy.
The CFPB must consider alternatives and justify its chosen regulation, even if its costs outweigh the benefits of alternatives.
If costs for small businesses increase, the CFPB must consult with the Office of Advocacy within the Small Business Administration to minimize burdens.
