Richard Cordray, the director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, will leave his post by the end of the month, he said in a memo to staff. There has been growing speculation he will run for governor of Ohio, though the memo does not refer to future plans. His departure would allow President Donald Trump to appoint a new director. House Financial Services Committee Chairman Jeb Hensarling, Republican from Texas, said "we are long overdue for new leadership" at the agency, which was created by the Dodd-Frank Act.
Serving the West Side first, I am Bill Roller of BR Capital for 1360 KUIK.
