“Under Richard Cordray’s leadership, we have found the CFPB
to be transparent and willing to listen to our concerns.
“We have not always agreed on the final outcome of CFPB
rulemakings, and there remain a number of items related to the mortgage process
that we will be working to address, but we are confident that we can make
progress toward finding solutions regarding these issues.”
