    Key Takeaways

    • Expands annual financial protection reporting to include activities of the Office of the Ombuds.
    • Requires the Commissioner to publish the comprehensive report on the department's website.
    • Maintains existing requirements to report on consumer complaints, enforcement actions, and fintech activities.

    Summary

    Assembly Member Chen's legislation expands California's financial oversight reporting requirements by adding the Office of the Ombuds to the annual report published by the Commissioner of Financial Protection and Innovation. The Commissioner's report, which details actions taken under the California Consumer Financial Protection Law, currently covers rulemaking, enforcement, consumer complaints, education initiatives, and activities of the Financial Technology Innovation Office.

    The amended requirements maintain the report's publication on the Department of Financial Protection and Innovation's website while broadening its scope to document the Office of the Ombuds' activities alongside existing content. The report retains its ability to include recommendations for enhanced oversight, transparency, and marketplace accessibility of financial products and services.
