Agenda as part of the Spring 2023 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory
and Deregulatory Actions, which is coordinated by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) under Executive Order 12866. The agenda
lists the regulatory matters that the CFPB reasonably anticipates, as

period from June 1, 2023, to May 31, 2024, as described further
below.\1\ The complete Unified Agenda is available to the public at the
following website: <a href="https://www.reginfo.gov">https://www.reginfo.gov</a>.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The listing does not include certain routine, frequent, or
administrative matters. The CFPB is reporting information for this
Unified Agenda in a manner consistent with past practice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Consistent with procedures established by OMB's Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,\2\ the CFPB's active agenda is
divided into five sections: pre-rule stage; proposed rule stage; final
rule stage; long-term actions, completed actions. Generally, the pre-
rule through final rule stages sections list items the CFPB plans to
issue within the next 12 months. The long-term actions are listed for
informational purposes, if a regulatory action is anticipated beyond
that one-year time frame. Completed actions are those that have been
published as final or are withdrawn.

Proposed Rule Stage
255. Amendments to FIRREA Concerning Automated Valuation Models [3170-
AA57]
Legal Authority: 12 U.S.C. 3354
Abstract: The CFPB is participating in an interagency rulemaking
process with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation, the National Credit Union Administration, and
the Federal Housing Finance Agency (collectively, the Agencies) to
develop regulations to implement the amendments made by the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) to the
Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989
(FIRREA) concerning automated valuation models. The FIRREA amendments
require implementing regulations for quality control standards for
automated valuation models (AVMs). In February 2022, the CFPB initiated
the process under the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness
Act of 1996 (SBREFA) for this rulemaking and released an outline of
proposals and alternatives under consideration for the SBREFA panel,
made up of representatives of small businesses that might be affected
by the rulemaking. The CFPB released a final SBREFA report on May 13,
2022. The Agencies expect to issue a proposed rule to implement the
Dodd-Frank Act's AVM amendments to FIRREA in June 2023.

256. Required Rulemaking on Personal Financial Data Rights [3170-AA78]
Legal Authority: 12 U.S.C. 5533
Abstract: Section 1033 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) provides that, subject to
rules prescribed by the Bureau, a covered entity (for example, a bank)
must make available to consumers, upon request, transaction data and
other information concerning a consumer financial product or service
[[Page 48633]]
that the consumer obtains from the covered entity. Section 1033 also
states that the Bureau must prescribe by rule standards to promote the
development and use of standardized formats for information made
available to consumers. In November 2020, the Bureau published an
Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) concerning implementation
of section 1033, accepting comments until February 2021. In October
2022, the Bureau released materials in advance of convening a panel
under the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (SBREFA),
in conjunction with the Office of Management and Budget and the Small
Business Administration's Chief Counsel for Advocacy. The SBREFA panel
was convened in February 2023 and received feedback from
representatives of small entities on the impacts the rules the Bureau
is considering to implement section 1033 would have on small entities
likely to be directly affected by the rulemaking.The panel's report
will becompleted in April 2023. The Bureau's next step in the
rulemaking is to issue a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM).

Legal Authority: 15 U.S.C. 1691c-2
Abstract: Section 1071 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) amended the Equal Credit
Opportunity Act (ECOA) to require, subject to rules prescribed by the
CFPB, financial institutions to report information concerning credit
applications made by women-owned, minority-owned, and small businesses.
In September 2020, the CFPB released an outline of proposals under
consideration and alternatives considered in advance of convening a
panel under the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act
(SBREFA), in conjunction with the Office of Management and Budget and
the Small Business Administration's Chief Counsel for Advocacy. The
SBREFA panel was convened in October 2020 and received feedback from
representatives of small entities on the impacts the rules the Bureau
is considering to implement section 1071 would have on small entities
likely to be directly affected by the rulemaking. The panel's report
was completed and released in December 2020. On October 8, 2021, a
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) was published in the Federal
Register. The CFPB's next action for the section 1071 rulemaking is the
issuance of a final rule.
