TFR Class Fourteen: The Regulation of Short-Term Credit Under the Dodd-Frank Act -- March 30th
In today's class, we will continue our discussion of the work of the CFPB. We will start by completing our consideration of the CFPB's Integrated Disclosure Regulations for RESPA and TILA. To what extent does the Know Before You Owe Study demonstrate that the regulation will benefit consumers more than the costs of transitioning to a new disclosure regime. Our next topic for class discussion will be the structure of the CFPB itself, as outlined in the Adam Levitin article assigned for Class Thirteen. The one new reading for today's class is Lauren Willis's article on When Nudges Fail. As you review this piece, consider how it relates (or does not relate) to the Bubb and Pildes article on retirement savings we read earlier in the semester.
