CUNA Says CFPB Should Increase Relief in “Rural” Definition Rule

CUNA’s comment letter is supportive of the CFPB’s proposal to broaden the definition of a “rural” area, but states that the proposed rule should go farther and provide impact analyses to show how communities, consumers, and creditors would be affected if the yearly loan limit was increased from 2,000 to 2,500, 3,000, 3,500, etc.  In addition, the small creditor asset limit of $2 billion may be arbitrary and CUNA is asking for consideration to be given to raising the limit.
