This measure cancels a recent Consumer Financial Protection Bureau rule about bank overdraft fees at very large banks. Because the rule is nullified, the planned limits and disclosures in that rule will not take effect. The rule would have required these banks to either cap overdraft fees at $5, justify a higher cap, or treat overdrafts like a credit product with Truth in Lending disclosures, but this cancellation stops those changes from happening . The resolution explicitly disapproves the CFPB’s “Overdraft Lending: Very Large Financial Institutions” rule .
| Who is affected | What changes | When |
|---|---|---|
| Customers of very large banks; very large financial institutions | The CFPB overdraft rule is canceled, so there is no $5 cap, no required justification for higher caps, and no requirement to treat overdrafts as credit under that rule | Upon this resolution’s enactment; the canceled rule had been published on December 30, 2024 |
