Information Collection
The Bureau implements three credit card data information collections:
(a)
Terms of Credit Card Plans Survey:
TILA section 136(b) requires the Bureau to collect data on credit card pricing and availability from a broad sample of at least 150 issuers, including the 25 largest issuers of credit cards and not less than 125 additional financial institutions selected by the Bureau.[1]
(b)
Credit Card Quarterly Agreement Submission:
section 204 of the Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009 (CARD Act), amending TILA,[2]
and 12 CFR 1026.58 requires card issuers with 10,000 or more open accounts to submit to the Bureau agreements between the issuer and a consumer under a credit card account for an open-end consumer credit plan.
(c)
College Credit Card Annual Agreement Submission:
section 305 of the CARD Act, amending TILA,[3]
and 12 CFR 1026.57(d) require card issuers to submit to the Bureau any college credit card agreements to which the issuer is a party and certain additional information regarding those agreements.
The data collections enable the Bureau to provide Congress and the public with a centralized and searchable repository for terms of credit card plans, consumer credit card agreements, college credit card agreements, and information regarding the arrangements between financial institutions and institutions of higher education.
