Yesterday, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB or Bureau) announced a significant shift in its enforcement priorities, choosing not to prioritize actions related to Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) loans under the Truth in Lending (Regulation Z). This decision aligns with the CFPB’s broader strategic adjustments outlined last month, and discussed here, which emphasize focusing resources on more pressing consumer threats, particularly those affecting servicemen, veterans, and small businesses.
