Beginning in 2011, the HFSA prepares and publishes financial consumer risk reports. This analysis is the second 2011 issue of the HFSA’s twice-yearly Financial Consumer Risk Report.
The primary purpose of the report is to identify current issues that represent high risks and that may have a significant impact from a financial consumer protection standpoint and to present the HFSA measures taken in response to these issues. Risks pertaining to financial stability and the supervision of financial institutions are discussed in the Risk Outlook, a long-standing HFSA publication.
