U.S. House Committee on Financial Services Chairman French Hill and Vice-Chairman Bill Huizenga sent a comment letter to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) responding to its advanced notice of proposed rulemaking on consumer personal financial data rights under Section 1033 of the Dodd-Frank Act. The lawmakers urged the CFPB to keep consumer choice central by ensuring rules allow consumers to share their financial data with authorized firms, while maintaining strong privacy and security standards. The letter commended the CFPB’s efforts to ensure consumers can meaningfully control and use their personal financial data, and recommended that any consumer financial data privacy and security requirements be based on existing frameworks under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).
