A consumer finance marketplace…
where customers can see prices and risks up front and where they can easily make product comparisons;
in which no one can build a business model around unfair, deceptive, or abusive practices;
that works for American consumers, responsible providers and the economy as a whole.
Our Vision

The consumer bureau is a 21st Century agency that helps make consumer finance markets work for all consumers -- whether they are applying for a mortgage, choosing among credit cards, or using any number of other consumer financial products.
Among other things, the Bureau is working to:– Educate: An informed consumer is the first line of defense against abusive
practices.
– Enforce: The CFPB supervises banks, credit unions, and other financial companies, and we will enforce Federal consumer financial laws.
– Study: The Bureau gathers and analyzes available information to better understand consumers, financial services providers, and consumer financial markets.
Our Mission
