Support UDAAP Protections
The California Department of Financial Protection’s (DFPI) released an updated, proposed UDAAP rule that adopts some of our recommendations:
- DFPI is proceeding with the proposed protections against “unfair, deceptive, and abusive acts or practices.”
- Data on the pricing of small business financing will be collected in the form of APR, not dollar cost, in recognition that APR, unlike dollar cost, enables comparison of the cost of financing over time.
Please join us to protect small businesses from deceptive lending practices by signing on to our letter that recommends some changes. Your signatures are needed by August 1, 2022.
