Explains requirements for written guidance provided by an agency in response to an inquiry by a financial institution and sets forth the civil actions that can be brought for a fraudulent act or intentional misconduct of the financial institution
HB 3107 protects Missouri financial institutions (like banks, credit unions, and lenders) from state civil lawsuits when they follow written guidance from regulatory agencies (such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau or Missouri Division of Finance), as long as they acted in good faith. It explicitly states that institutions cannot be held liable for complying with such guidance, even if the guidance later changes or is invalidated, but does not shield them from liability for fraud, intentional misconduct, or gross negligence. The law applies to guidance covering mandatory disclosures (like mortgage terms under Truth in Lending Act) and accessibility requirements (like ADA compliance). It clarifies that federal law or enforcement actions remain unaffected.

MINOR
The bill was amended to update the list of federal and state agencies included in the definition of 'regulatory agency' and to refine the definition of 'written guidance'. These changes ensure the law explicitly covers the Missouri Division of Credit Unions and the U.S. Department of Justice while clarifying that guidance must be 'published' to be considered official.
Scope change
The scope of the bill was expanded to include the Missouri Division of Credit Unions and the U.S. Department of Justice as covered regulatory agencies.
DEFINITION
Added the Missouri Division of Credit Unions and the U.S. Department of Justice to the list of agencies subject to the bill's regulations.
Removed the Missouri division of finance from the list of agencies, likely because its functions were reorganized or the bill no longer applies to it.
Changed the definition of 'written guidance' to require that records be 'published', narrowing the scope to only officially released documents rather than internal communications.
