Introduction

Listening and responding to consumers is central to the CFPBs purpose of ensuring that all

consumers have access to financial products and services. Consumers nationwide have engaged

with the CFPB through public field hearings, listening events, roundtables, town halls, online

through the website , and through the CFPB Office of Consumer Response.

The CFPB has also sought input from a range of stakeholders, including financial educators,

community-based organizations, financial institutions, and others. This engagement would be

incomplete without efforts to include people with limited English proficiency.

More than 65 million people, or about 21 percent of the U.S. population over the age of five,

speak a language other than English at home. Of these, more than 26 million people in the U.S.

have limited proficiency in English. Individuals are generally considered to have limited English

proficiency if they speak a language other than English at home and speak English less than

very well. Studies by federal agencies and other stakeholders have highlighted that the receipt

of materials in consumers native languages is essential to increasing these consumers

knowledge about financial products and services.

This glossary of common financial terms was created and is used by the CFPB for translating

consumer education materials from English to Chinese. The CFPB is publicly sharing it to

further the accessibility of financial information to people with limited English proficiency.

Stakeholders that may be interested in using this tool include financial educators, government

agencies, financial service providers, and other organizations serving those with limited English

proficiency. The glossary of terms is not a mandate, guide, or requirement.

The CFPB offers resources for people with limited English proficiency, including:

? Online resources in multiple languages, linked at cfpb-in-english

? Publications to download and print, in multiple languages, at



? CFPB en espa?ol, es/

? CFPB resources for financial educators at adult-financialeducation

People with limited English proficiency can submit complaints to the CFPB in more than 180

languages via telephone at (855) 411-2372.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is a 21st century agency that implements and

enforces federal consumer financial law and ensures that markets for consumer financial

products are fair, transparent, and competitive. For more, visit .
