View Rule

The Bureau announced in 2018 that it intended to open a rulemaking to reconsider its 2017 rule titled Payday, Vehicle Title, and Certain High-Cost Installment Loans. The rule has a compliance date in August 2019. The Bureau issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in February 2019 that proposed to delay the compliance date for provisions of the rule concerning the underwriting of covered short-term and longer-term balloon payment loans for 15 months to allow the Bureau adequate opportunity to review comments on its main rulemaking and to make any changes to those provisions before affected entities bear additional costs and experience related market effects associated with implementing and complying with them. The postponement would also account for potential implementation challenges that had not been anticipated at the time of the 2017 rule.
