The American Dream of starting a business has often been a path to prosperity for both entrepreneurs and the communities they serve. But potential entrepreneurs can struggle to access credit at affordable prices.

To protect consumers and ensure a transparent and competitive marketplace, @CFPB will
- Continue education on best practices related to credit cards
- Research emerging tech and products
- Address regulatory uncertainty and identify compliance deficiencies

Today, @CFPB released the 2021 Consumer Credit Card Market Report. This research found that the way people used credit cards shifted as the pandemic changed their financial realities. I’ve included some key findings in the thread. https://t.co/xTzSExiXgr
