CFPB Gives Lenders Extra Time for Fair Credit Rules
Published Date: 6/18/2025
Rule
Summary
Small businesses and lenders get more time to follow new rules about fair lending under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act. The CFPB is pushing back the deadlines because of ongoing court cases, so everyone has extra breathing room to comply. This means no sudden money moves or penalties for now, just a smoother path ahead.

Small-business lending deadlines delayed
If you own a small business or make small-business loans, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is extending the compliance dates for the 2023 small business lending rule (as amended by a 2024 interim final rule). The change is being made because of court orders in ongoing litigation, and it pushes back the dates when lenders and small businesses must meet the Regulation B requirements.
