Abstract:
Regulation E requires accurate disclosure of the costs, terms, and rights relating to electronic fund transfer services to consumers. It also requires financial institutions to retain records sufficient to show compliance with the Regulation. Because the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") has shared enforcement jurisdiction for this regulation with the Consumer Financial Protection Board ("CFPB") under the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFPB has incorporated into its burden estimates for this regulation, net of an estimate covering motor vehicle dealers (which the FTC is fully assuming within its own burden estimates), half of the residual portion of the FTC's pre-existing, cleared burden hour estimate for this regulation. This clearance renewal request reflects these considerations in addition to updating the FTC estimates for declining market conditions.
