Pursuant to the Financial Data Transparency Act (FDTA), the Department of the Treasury, FDIC, OCC, FRB, NCUA, CFPB, SEC, and FHFA (collectively, the covered agencies) are developing a joint rule that establishes data standards for the collections of information reported to each covered agency by financial entities under the jurisdiction of the covered agency. The FDTA seeks to promote interoperability of financial regulatory data across covered agencies and should make the data reported to the covered agencies more useful to the public.
