Description:
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau introduced a new rule that would cap credit card late fees at $8, down from the typical $32 currently charged by most banks. This is estimated to save Americans $10 billion annually in late fees. The credit card industry, led by the US Chamber of Commerce, sued the CFPB in federal court to block this new rule from taking effect. A judge in Texas is expected to decide whether to grant an injunction requested by the industry that would freeze the new rule until the legal issues are resolved. Analysts expect the industry lawsuit will likely be successful, as Texas courts are viewed as favorable to corporations.
