The CFPB has announced that due to inclement weather, it has postponed the field hearing about access to checking accounts until February 3, 2016.  The hearing, which is to be held in Louisville, Kentucky, was originally scheduled for today.

As we previously reported, we expect the hearing to coincide with an announcement by the CFPB of steps it is taking to address concerns raised by Director Cordray in connection with the CFPB’s October 2014 forum on checking account screening policies and practices.
