Regulation P: Sharing Is Not Wrong

Regulation Pgoverns the treatment of nonpublic personal information about consumers by the financial institution…. Non-public personal information is any personally identifiable financial information that is not publicly available and includes information:

  1. A consumer provides to you to obtain a financial product or service from you;
  2. About a consumer resulting from any transaction involving a financial product or service between you and a consumer; or
  3. You otherwise obtain about a consumer in connection with providing a financial product or service to that consumer.

Regulation P does not prohibit all NPPI sharing; rather it dictates when it can be shared and when it can’t.

Kevin brings years of experience and a unique perspective on regulatory matters to our clients. A self-proclaimed geek and accredited CRCM, Kevin is also a recovering attorney with experience as in-house counsel for a large regional bank and one of the leading national title insurance providers. For reasons unknown, Kevin decided to leave the safety and serenity of his desk job to seek fortune and glory as a wandering adventurer. Like a bank compliance version of Kwai Chang Caine, The Man with No Name or Don Quixote, he now travels the land seeking to help those in need and righting compliance wrongs, wherever he may find them. Kevin lives in Sioux Falls with his two children, who are surprisingly normal after having endured their father’s vivid imagination for their entire lives. He won’t admit to having any hobbies, because apparently “Regulations never sleep.” (While he does say this in his Batman voice, we’re pretty sure he’s joking.) From the looks of his Facebook page, he likes the outdoors and spending time with his large extended family (who seem like relatively normal people).
