The U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) believes Ripple’s solutions can enhance the transparency of the payment industry. It is stated in the report on international payments under the act on electronic money transfers. It follows that the agency is closely monitoring new trends in the industry, including the activities of digital currency issuers like Ripple. The report says that banks and credit organizations are increasingly working with closed payment systems. It complicates the calculation of commissions and other fees, including currency exchange rates. Ripple solutions can increase the transparency of the payment system for all parties: 

 “The Bureau also believes that the expanded implementation of GPI from SWIFT or the Ripple toolkit will allow banks and credit institutions to know the exact amount that will be received by the payee before this payment is sent.”

We would like to remind you that in April this year, Ripple entered the market of trans-border transfers of $6.7 billion per year. A month earlier, Ripple’s Partner refused a $36 billion solution with XRP for the market of trans-border transfers.
