🇺🇸CFPB · United States
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
The US regulator responsible for consumer protection in the financial sector, enforcing federal consumer financial laws.
Its role in AI governance
The CFPB has emphasised that consumer financial protection laws apply fully to AI-driven decisions. It has highlighted that lenders using complex algorithms must still provide specific, accurate adverse-action reasons under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, and that "black box" models do not excuse non-compliance with anti-discrimination and transparency requirements.
