View Rule

Section 1073 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) contains an exception to disclosure requirements for remittance transfers. The exception permits insured depository institutions and insured credit unions in certain circumstances to estimate certain required disclosures. As mandated by statute, this exception will expire on July 21, 2020. After completing an assessment in October 2018 of rules to implement Dodd-Frank Act requirements for international remittance transfers, the Bureau issued in April 2019 a Request for Information to gather information related to the expiration of the temporary exception and information related to the scope of the Remittance Rule’s coverage. In its consideration of appropriate next steps, including potentially rulemaking, the Bureau is taking account stakeholder feedback during the assessment process and comments received in response to the Request for Information.
