Requires financial institutions to develop and apply a response program, including customer notification procedures, to address unauthorized access to or use of customer information that could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to a customer.
US Code:
12 USC 6801
Name of Law: Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
OTS is citing a decrease in the inventory burden of (6,525) hours. Although OTS is citing an increase in the number of responses (from 953 to 1618) OTS is citing a reduction in response time of 17 hours (from 53 hours to 36 hours). The reduction in response time is due to the fact that there has been less time expended by institutions to provide their responses to OTS.
