The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau fired all 25 members of the agency's Consumer Advisory Board during a conference call Wednesday, saying it wanted to bring in more diverse views.

Acting Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Director Mick Mulvaney is poised to dismiss its administrative proceeding against the mortgage lender, following a four-year battle over the agency's structure.

Lenders would have a lighter data-reporting burden, but they may end up deciding to collect the data anyway.

The CFPB is looking to rescind Obama-era policy that allowed it to punish banks and financial firms for unintentional discrimination.

Mick Mulvaney’s recent comments about the CFPB Qualified Mortgage rule have triggered a debate over whether regulators should take into account more than one underwriting model.

Acting CFPB Director Mick Mulvaney has dropped agency plans to crack down on overdraft programs and large marketplace lenders. Here's what else he's changing.

President Trump has nominated Michael Bright, the current acting president and chief operating officer of Ginnie Mae, to head the agency full time.

The union representing employees at the CFPB is already fighting acting Director Mick Mulvaney's efforts to restructure the agency, and readying for a potentially larger conflict as rumors of layoffs swirl.

The administration is prolonging a decision on a permanent director for the agency to keep the interim chief in place until year-end or longer.

The public face of the Trump administration's revamp of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is by no means working alone.

The New Jersey mortgage lender and servicer won a huge victory in January when an appeals court threw out its fine levied by the consumer agency, but the court ruled against the claim that the agency's structure is unconstitutional.

The group says Mulvaney, who also runs OMB, was not totally forthcoming with the Senate Budget Committee about the foreclosure of a property he owns in South Carolina.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has dropped an investigation into Altisource, a mortgage servicing technology firm with close ties to Ocwen Financial.

The CFPB finalized an amendment to its "know before you owe" mortgage disclosure rule that gives lenders more flexibility to adjust closing cost estimates and pass those increases on to borrowers.

The agency's acting chief said hundreds of data breaches justified a halt on collecting information from firms, but experts question that logic.

Months after President Trump vowed that Wells Fargo would pay a severe penalty, the CFPB and OCC hit the bank with a $1 billion fine to settle claims it overcharged customers for auto insurance and home loans.

The latest fine from regulators was leveled against the bank on Friday. But it's far from the only penalty it has paid in recent years, and more may be on the way.

According to the Reuters report, which cited unnamed sources, acting CFPB Director Mick Mulvaney is seeking a settlement with Wells over claims related to force-placed auto insurance and improper mortgage fees.

As lawmakers consider reforms to the Dodd-Frank Act, fresh data shows a dramatic reduction in new items issued by the regulatory agencies.

The information request is the 11th issued by the agency since acting CFPB Director Mick Mulvaney in January launched a review to examine the bureau's practices.
