The investigation focuses on whether the Company's Board of Directors and/or its officers committed mismanagement and breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the Company's loan servicing practices. On January 18, 2017, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") filed a complaint against Navient alleging that the Company "failed to perform its core duties in the servicing of student loans, violating Federal consumer financial laws as well as the trust that borrowers placed in [Navient]." According to an article by The Wall Street Journal ("WSJ"), the CFPB "alleged that the company harmed consumers by providing inaccurate information, failing to process payments properly and not responding to borrower complaints. Navient also 'illegally cheated' borrowers out of their rights to lower repayments, helping push customers into default."
