The Office of Inspector General has completed its report on the subject evaluation. We conducted this evaluation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (CFPB) supervision program to (1) review key program elements, including policies and procedures, examination guidance, and controls to promote consistent and timely reporting; (2) assess the approach for staffing examinations; and (3) assess the training program for examination staff.

We provided you with a draft of our report for review and comment. In your response, you concurred with our recommendations and outlined actions that have been or will be taken to address our recommendations. We have included your response as appendix B to our report.

We appreciate the cooperation that we received from CFPB staff during our evaluation. Please contact me if you would like to discuss this report or any related issues.
