The Office of Intergovernmental
Affairs at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau requests
approval of a generic clearance to collect information from state,
local, and tribal governments. These governments interact closely
with consumers and are critical partners in promoting transparency
and competition in the consumer financial products marketplace,
eliminating unfair and unlawfully discriminatory practices, and
enforcing consumer financial laws. The information collected
through the Office of Intergovernmental Affairs Outreach Activities
will be shared, as appropriate, within the Bureau, such as with the
Bureau's rulemaking, market monitoring, supervision, fair lending
monitoring, outreach to traditionally underserved populations,
financial education, and enforcement functions.
