Abstract: The amendments to the Fair Credit Reporting Risk-Based Pricing Regulations implement the requirements of Section 1100F of the Dodd-Frank Act by adding content to the risk-based pricing notices and providing additional model notices. The FTC and Federal Reserve Board believe it is important to have these Dodd-Frank Act implementing regulations and revised model notices in place by July 21, 2011 (when the Dodd-Frank requirements become effective) or otherwise no later than 30 days from publication in the Federal Register of the final amendments (the announced effective date of the implementing regulations). This will help ensure that consumers receive consistent disclosures of credit scores and information relating to them and help facilitate uniform compliance when related rulemaking authority transfers to the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection on July 21, 2011.
