Biden administration caps bank and credit union overdraft fees at as low as $5

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has introduced a new rule to limit overdraft fees for banks and credit unions with assets over $10 billion, potentially saving consumers $5 billion annually.

The rule offers three options for these institutions: charge a $5 overdraft fee, cover costs or losses, or charge higher fees if they disclose terms and comply with lending laws.

Currently, banks charge an average of $35 per overdraft.

The rule is part of efforts to curb excessive bank fees and protect vulnerable consumers, CBS News has reported.
