MOU on Supervisory Coordination
Five federal supervisory agencies released a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) clarifying how the agencies will coordinate their supervisory activities, consistent with the Dodd-Frank Act. Section 1025 of the Dodd-Frank Act requires that the CFPB and the prudential regulators—the FRB, FDIC, NCUA, and OCC—coordinate important aspects of their supervision of institutions with more than $10 billion in assets and their affiliates.

Under the MOU, the agencies will coordinate examinations and other supervisory activities and share certain material supervisory information.
