Title X of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) transferred rulemaking authority for a number of consumer financial protection laws from seven Federal agencies to the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (Bureau) as of July 21, 2011. The Bureau is in the process of republishing the regulations implementing those laws with technical and conforming changes to reflect the transfer of authority and certain other changes made by the Dodd-Frank Act. In light of the transfer of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System's (Board's) rulemaking authority for the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) to the Bureau, the Bureau is publishing for public comment an interim final rule establishing a new Regulation Z (Truth in Lending). This interim final ru...

Forensic Economists often utilize the arithmetic average for calculating growth rates to estimate economic damages. While it may be convenient to calculate the arithmetic average, it is mathematically inaccurate when such a rate is compounded. In such cases, it is incumbent upon the Forensic Economist to employ the geometric mean. In this note, we outline the when, why and how to employ the accurate use of the geometric mean.

The Truth in Lending Act of 1968 (TILA) was a landmark piece of legislation that was designed to inform consumers about the true cost of credit. Prior to the TILA, lenders used many different methods to calculate the stated interest rate on a loan. The TILA required all lenders to state an annual percentage rate (APR) that was calculated on a consistent basis. This allowed consumers to compare rates, and to assess the cost of borrowing. Over the years, however, banks and other lenders sought and obtained numerous exceptions that allowed them to charge fees that were not included or disclosed in the APR. This practice has become so egregious that in a recent case, Pennsylvania Department of Banking v. NCAS of Delaware, a lender was able to legally claim an APR of 5.98%, while the actual ...

Evaluating the cost of credit and comparison shopping in the modern credit environment can be a daunting task, even for the most sophisticated shoppers. Lenders increasingly unbundle the costs of their loans from the interest rate into an array of fees, outsource their overhead to third parties who add to consumers' costs, and unveil amazingly complex loan products that dazzle and confuse borrowers. At the same time, the preemption of state usury and consumer protection laws by Congress and the federal banking agencies has spurred deregulation at the state level. Today, the consumer credit marketplace is governed almost exclusively by disclosure rules. The subprime mortgage crisis of 2007 resulted from allowing the market to police itself and from the failure of disclosure to curb abuse...
