Turning Up the Heat on Non-Bank Lenders<\/a>&#8220;) by Harvard bankruptcy law professor <strong>Elizabeth Warren<\/strong>, who is currently serving as the Chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel created to oversee the banking bailouts, draws attention to the importance of making sure these non-bank lenders are not able to scam consumers by working in the gaps between federal and state regulations.<\/p>\n<p>The issue has arisen in response to President Obama&#8217;s recent proposal to create a new <strong>Consumer Financial Protection Agency<\/strong>, which is an attempt to right many of the wrongs that led to the current economic crisis we&#8217;re facing.&nbsp; And as Professor Warren points out, the big business lobby is doing everything it can to squash the creation of the CFPA before it can get out of the gate.<\/p>\n<p>That would be a shame as American consumers are in more need of financial protections than ever right now.&nbsp; Consumers are vulnerable enough as it is in the current economy.&nbsp; Easy pickings for unscrupulous non-bank lenders&#8230;unless we make the effort to stop them.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned to this issue as its evolution will likely have an impact on bankruptcy filing rates in the future, in New York and across the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Go to <a href=\"https:\/\/nybankruptcy.net\/main\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bankruptcy Lawyer Brooklyn NY<\/a>&nbsp;to learn more about Rosenberg Musso &amp;
