Debt Cancellation Contracts and Debt Suspension Agreements

Короткий зміст

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) is proposing to add a new part 37 to its regulations that addresses debt cancellation contracts (DCCs) and debt suspension agreements (DSAs). The purposes of the customer protections set forth in the proposed rule are to facilitate customers' informed choice about whether to purchase DCCs and DSAs, based on an understanding of the costs, benefits, and limitations of the products and to discourage inappropriate or abusive sales practices. In addition, the proposed rule promotes safety and soundness by requiring national banks that provide these products to maintain adequate loss reserves.
