On February 21, 2020, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) provided their annual Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) report to the CFPB. The FTC is responsible for ECOA enforcement and education regarding most non-bank financial service providers and the report describes the Commission’s work on ECOA-related issues, including activities addressed in research and policy development. The summary also outlines the Commission’s business and consumer education efforts on fair lending issues.

The full FTC ECOA report can be found here.
