What's in the News?
Foreclosure Settlement: On January 7, 2013, the OCC and Federal Reserve announced an $8.5 billion settlement related to foreclosure. See the news release for more.
Message from the OCC Ombudsman
July 21, 2011, marked the anniversary of the Dodd-Frank Consumer Protection and Wall Street Reform Act. On that day, the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (CFPB) gained authority to supervise large banks and federal savings associations with more than $10 billion in assets for compliance with certain consumer protection laws. Part of that authority includes the handling of consumer complaints related to those large financial companies.
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency will continue to process questions and complaints concerning consumer issues within the jurisdiction of the OCC through our Consumer Assistance Group (CAG) and will continue to send misdirected complaints it receives to the appropriate federal or state regulator. Consumers can contact the bureau through its Web site, consumerfinance.gov, or by phone at 855-411-2372. Consumers may use the FFIEC site to identify a financial institution’s primary regulator, or may use the FDIC institution directory to identify which institutions have more than $10 billion in assets.
Contact the Customer Assistance Group for further assistance or guidance on filing a complaint.
