The Board is publishing revisions to the official staff commentary to Regulation Z (Truth in Lending). The commentary applies and interprets the requirements of Regulation Z. The update addresses increased rates for open-end plans triggered by events such as late payments or exceeding credit limits. It provides guidance on deferred payment transactions in open-end plans. It also addresses how creditors may determine whether credit is an open-end plan or a closed-end transaction. In addition, the update discusses issues such as the treatment of annuity costs in reverse mortgage transactions and transaction fees imposed on checking accounts with overdraft protection.
