The rule finalized by the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau could significantly reduce the overdraft fees that banks currently impose on customers.
The American Bankers Association contends that the new overdraft fee rule may ultimately lead to reduced overdraft protection options for consumers.
In the past year, banks accrued around $5.8 billion from overdraft and non-sufficient funds fees, highlighting the financial burden on consumers.
The Biden administration's broader strategy aims to tackle junk fees, making strides to eliminate unnecessary charges across various sectors.
