BUREAU OF CONSUMER FINANCIAL PROTECTION

12 CFR Part 1003

[Docket No. CFPB-2020-0014]
RIN 3170-AB01


Facilitating the LIBOR Transition (Regulation Z); Correction

AGENCY: Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On December 8, 2021, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 
(Bureau) published the ``Facilitating the LIBOR Transition (Regulation 
Z)'' final rule (LIBOR Transition Final Rule) in the Federal Register. 
The SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION in the LIBOR Transition Final Rule 
contained two clerical errors regarding a hyperlink to documents 
referenced in each footnote. This document corrects those errors.

DATES: This correction is effective on February 16, 2022.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Krista Ayoub, Kristen Phinnessee, or 
Lanique Eubanks, Senior Counsels, Office of Regulations, at 202-435-
7700. If you require this document in an alternative electronic format, 
please contact [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 8, 2021, the Bureau published in 
the Federal Register the ``Facilitating the LIBOR Transition 
(Regulation Z)'' final rule (LIBOR Transition Final Rule), which amends 
various provisions in Regulation Z in anticipation of the sunset of 
LIBOR.\1\ Two footnotes in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION contained 
clerical errors regarding a hyperlink to materials referenced in each 
footnote, one omitting the hyperlink and the other providing the 
incorrect hyperlink and omitting the document title. Specifically, in 
footnote 1 in the second column of page 69716 and in footnote 10 in the 
third column of page 69718 of volume 86 of the Federal Register:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Facilitating the LIBOR Transition (Regulation Z), 86 FR 
69716 (Dec. 8, 2021).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     The bracketed word ``at [placeholder]'' should read ``at 
https://www.consumerfinance.gov/compliance/compliance-resources/other-applicable-requirements/libor-index-transition/'';
     The phrase ``Bureau of Consumer Fin. Prot., [Title] 
https://www.consumerfinance.gov/policy-compliance/guidance/other-applicable-requirements/libortransition/'' should read ``Bureau of 
Consumer Fin. Prot., LIBOR Index Transition Compliance Resources, 
https://www.consumerfinance.gov/compliance/compliance-resources/other-applicable-requirements/libor-index-transition/.''
    These changes make it so that the referenced hyperlink is now 
accessible in the Federal Register.

Correction

    Accordingly, the Bureau makes the following corrections to FR Doc. 
2021-25825 published on December 8, 2021 (86 FR 69716):
    1. On page 69716, in the second column, revise footnote 1 to read 
``When amending commentary, the Office of the Federal Register requires 
reprinting of certain subsections being amended in their entirety 
rather than providing more targeted amendatory instructions. The 
sections of regulatory text and commentary included in this document 
show the language of those sections. In addition, the Bureau is 
releasing an unofficial, informal redline to assist industry and other 
stakeholders in reviewing the changes made in this final rule to the 
regulatory text and commentary of Regulation Z. This redline can be 
found on the Bureau's website, at https://www.consumerfinance.gov/compliance/compliance-resources/other-applicable-requirements/libor-index-transition/. If any conflicts exist between the redline and the 
text of Regulation Z, its commentary, or this final rule, the documents 
published in the Federal Register are the controlling documents.''
    2. On page 69718, in the third column, revise footnote 10 to read 
``At the same time as issuing the proposal, the Bureau issued separate 
written guidance in the form of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for 
creditors and card issuers to use as they transition away from using 
LIBOR indices. These FAQs addressed regulatory questions where the 
existing rule was clear on the requirements and already provides 
necessary alternatives for the LIBOR transition. The FAQs, as well as 
additional written guidance materials including an executive summary of 
this final rule, are available here: Bureau of Consumer Fin. Prot., 
LIBOR Index Transition Compliance Resources, https://www.consumerfinance.gov/compliance/compliance-resources/other-applicable-requirements/libor-index-transition/.''
