H.R. 4067 would expand  the functions of the Office of Community Affairs unit within the
Consumer  Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). Under the bill, that office would be required
to coordinate with other bureau offices to facilitate research on the reasons some people are
underserved by depository institutions. The CFPB also would be required to coordinate
research efforts related to underserved people across the federal government. Finally, every
two years, the CFPB would study and report to the Congress about the factors that impede
people from engaging with depository institutions.

Using information from the CFPB, CBO  expects that the CFPB would need about three full-
time employees at an annual cost of $200,000 each to meet those requirements. In addition,
the CFPB  expects it would need to develop and conduct a nationwide, representative survey
every other year to study why people do not engage with depository institutions. Using
information from the CFPB, CBO  estimates that the cost of that survey would be about
$600,000 every other year.

CBO  estimates that, in total, enacting H.R. 4067 would increase direct spending by
$10 million over the 2020-2029 period for the CFPB.

The CBO   staff contact for this estimate is David Hughes. The estimate was reviewed by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
