The article discusses the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act which was signed by President Barack Obama in May of 2009. The Act mandates specific reforms to the credit card industry in an attempt to curb the abuse by certain credit card companies while at the same time allowing financial institutions the ability to price credit against risk.
