The primary privacy and data security consumer protection law for financial institutions is Title V of the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act (GLBA). We support legislation to put in place a national privacy standard, but that standard must recognize the strong privacy and data security standards that are already in place for the financial sector under the GLBA and other financial privacy laws (e.g., the Fair Credit Reporting Act and Right to Financial Privacy Act) and avoid provisions that duplicate or are inconsistent with those laws.
