Consumer Finance Watchdog Finalizes ‘Open Banking’ Rules Aimed At Driving Competition

The CFPB faces industry pushback on move to let customers share financial data between banks and link their accounts with apps. Consumer Finance Watchdog Finalizes ‘Open Banking’ Rules Aimed At Driving Competition


“Too many Americans are stuck in financial products with lousy rates and service,” CFPB Director Rohit Chopra said. “Today’s action will give people more power to get better rates and service on bank accounts, credit cards and more.”

The liberal think tank American Economic Liberties Project, meanwhile, called the rules a “massive win” for consumers. “Much like number portability in telecom, financial data portability will bring better prices and services to consumers by forcing big banks to finally compete for their business,” the AELP said.

A U.S. consumer finance watchdog finalized rules that will allow customers to transfer their bank data to another bank or allow third-party apps to access it without having to pay fees or clear other hurdles designed to make such moves difficult.




Consumer Finance Watchdog Finalizes ‘Open Banking’ Rules Aimed At Driving Competition




The so-called open banking rules could reshape the consumer finance landscape by making it easier for upstart tech companies offering services ranging from digital wallets to financial-management tools to gain access to consumer data that has long been tightly held by banks.

Two banking groups on Tuesday said they were filing a lawsuit to block the regulations.

The move by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau on Tuesday follows through on a promise by President Biden to make it easier for customers to download their financial data and take that with them to another bank. The mandate was part of an executive order aimed at promoting competition across industries.

The idea to give customers more control over their financial data stretches back to before the Biden administration. The CFPB was given the authority to write such rules as part of legislation passed in response to the 2008-09 financial crisis, known as the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act.

Since that legislation, the number of mobile apps customers can link with their bank account to perform services has grown drastically. That has raised questions within the industry about how financial data should be best shared between companies.

But many banks and banking industry groups have criticized the CFPB’s plan to implement the long-dormant clause in the Dodd-Frank Act related to information-sharing.

In comment letters and meetings with the CFPB, groups such as the Bank Policy Institute had raised concerns about data security and liability in the event of any fraud or scam that results in the theft of a customer’s personal information. The groups have argued the rules risk jeopardizing the strong reputation banks have built around guarding customer data.

The BPI on Tuesday said the CFPB’s final rules didn’t resolve many of the deficiencies and omissions that plagued the earlier proposal. The group on Tuesday said it had partnered with the Kentucky Bankers Association to challenge the rules in federal court in Lexington, Ky.

“This isn’t open banking—it’s open season for more fraud and scams,” a JPMorgan Chase spokeswoman said.

The Financial Technology Association, a fintech sector lobbying group, also praised the rules.

The CFPB’s new rules will apply not just to banks, but to “nondepository” institutions such as companies that offer credit cards, facilitate transactions or provide other services. In response to feedback, the agency said it would exempt banks and credit unions with assets of less than $850 million.

Financial institutions will have years to prepare before the new rules go into effect, depending on their size, the CFPB said Tuesday. The largest banks will have until April 1, 2026, while certain smaller institutions will have until April 1, 2030.

Many banks already share some customer data through a process known as screen-scraping, a method that prompts consumers to hand over their username and passwords so a third party can retrieve data directly from their account.

The CFPB on Tuesday said there was a nearly universal consensus that safer forms of information-sharing should supplant screen-scraping. The agency said its new rules set basic standards and guardrails around how data should be authorized and shared.

“The type of data-sharing and movement envisioned by this rule is really a sea change,” said Laurel Loomis Rimon, a partner at law firm Jenner & Block who previously served at the CFPB.

Chopra in a speech at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia on Tuesday compared the new rules to regulations that made it easier for mobile phone users to switch carriers while keeping their number.

“This is about a million times more complicated,” said Rimon, referencing his remarks. “It’s not just a phone number, it’s names and addresses, account activities and history and details about consumers’ financial transactions.”

“It’s a lot more data, and a lot more highly sensitive data, that’s potentially going to be moving around,” she added.

He also said the rule incorporates strong privacy protections and consumer choices.

“A company that ingests a consumer’s data can use the data to provide the product or service the consumer asked for, but not for unrelated purposes the consumer doesn’t want,” he said in a speech at a financial technology event held by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia.

First proposed a year ago, the new rules were 14 years in the making, having been called for in the 2010 Wall Street reforms enacted following the 2008 financial crisis.

According to the CFPB, the rules would also allow consumers to borrow on better terms, for example by allowing lenders to issue loans using data held by other financial institutions, and to make payments directly from their bank accounts rather than by card.

Consumers will also be able to revoke access to their data immediately, the CFPB said.

Ahead of the announcement, CFPB officials said the agency had made some changes to the version originally proposed in response to concerns from industry and public comment, sparing banks with less than $850 million in assets from having to provide data, for example.

Republican chair of the U.S. House Financial Services Committee Patrick McHenry welcomed the announcement, calling for Congress to codify the new rule’s protections into law.

“This is progress for American innovation and consumers but we can’t stop here,” he said in a statement.

Data aggregators, such as Plaid and Akoya, which provide connections among banks and financial tech services, and the Financial Technology Association, whose members include aggregators and payments companies like PayPal, praised the rule, saying it would promote the secure transfer of consumer data.

But other trade groups said they were not happy.

Lindsey Johnson, head of the Consumer Bankers Association, said in a statement the CFPB had “contorted” the congressional statute authorizing the rule to enable “thousands of third parties’ to access consumers’ data.”

The American Fintech Council (AFC), on the other hand, complained the consumer data provisions were too restrictive, including by improperly barring the “secondary use” of consumer data for cross-selling services and targeted advertising.
