Since opening its doors in July 2011, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has focused on monitoring and enforcing financial institutions' compliance with consumer financial protection laws and regulations, as well as preventing unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts and practices under the Dodd-Frank Act. The bureau has exercised regulatory oversight and initiated enforcement actions against firms in a wide range of financial services industries. The CFPB's broad mandate covers credit cards, bank accounts and services, mortgages, private student loans, and auto lending, among other financial products and service areas.
NERA's economists have extensive experience with consumer protection issues in financial markets and with financial institution regulatory compliance. Institutions rely on NERA to provide expert analysis, assessments, and testimony in regulatory reviews and litigation proceedings. Our deep practical expertise cuts across the financial industry, including banking, investment products, credit cards, and mortgage origination and securitization. Many of NERA's economists have direct regulatory experience, having held key positions at government agencies including the Federal Reserve Board, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Federal Trade Commission, and the President's Council of Economic Advisers. Outside of the public sector, NERA experts have held senior positions at some of the world's leading financial and advisory companies. We combine an authoritative understanding of the relevant laws and regulations with the industry's leading experience in producing highly rigorous and objective economic analysis to help financial institutions adapt to regulatory overhaul in the area of consumer protection.
In the area of consumer protection, NERA experts have experience with:
