Read Out of CFPB Inaugural Joint Office Hours in Salt Lake City

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), the Office of the Utah Attorney General, and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions held joint office hours on January 30, 2020 in Salt Lake City, Utah. The joint office hours are held as part of the American Consumer Financial Innovation Network (ACFIN). Earlier this year the CFPB, along with state partners, launched ACFIN to enhance coordination among federal and state regulators as it relates to innovation and further objectives such as consumer access, competition, and financial inclusion. Additionally, ACFIN provides a platform for members to share information to facilitate coordination on innovation policies and programs.

Joint office hours provide innovators with the opportunity to discuss issues such as regulatory uncertainty, financial technology, innovative products or services, regulatory sandboxes, no action letters, and other matters related to financial innovation with officials from the CFPB and state partners.

Following a public invitation by press release, all companies requesting to attend the joint office hours were accommodated. CFPB Director Kathleen L. Kraninger met with representatives from  Plaid, Finicity, MX Technologies, Finnovation Squad, BlytzPay, Square Bank, Park Place Payments, Strivve & Lantern Credit. Bureau and state representatives met with additional companies during office hours.
