> with the red tape created by the CFPB

I won't disagree with regulations necessarily, but the rate of small banks closing has actually gone down since 2011 when the CFPB was created. It was higher during 2000-2008.

Bank consolidations predate the CFPB. And some of the banks that seem to have had the most issues would not be called small by anyone (e.g. Santander)



Define "closing". None of the banks I represented "closed". They have all been swallowed up by larger banks.
