The Future of Consumer Financial Protection: A Two-Day FTC/ICFC Colloquium on the 5th Anniversary of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s Taskforce on Federal Consumer Financial Law

This two-day conference brought together scholars, policymakers, and practitioners to discuss key issues in consumer finance. The first day featured a keynote address followed by two sessions organized by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The second day, organized by the Institute for Consumer Financial Choice (ICFC), included a keynote address, three panel discussions examining various chapters of the Taskforce Report, and an additional keynote from a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) official. Members of the Taskforce chaired the panel sessions, which encouraged robust discussion and audience engagement through extensive Q&A opportunities.

The conference fostered the exchange of ideas and perspectives on consumer finance among participants from academia, government, and industry. Sessions were also livestreamed to enable broader participation.
