📄Trump Should Reform Financial Watchdogs. Here’s How
Bloomberg reports that simplifying oversight of markets and banking would make the system safer. It won’t be easy.
📈No doubt, the current system is
unwieldy. At the federal level — excluding an array of separate state regulators —
three entities oversee banks,
two supervise markets,
one aims to protect consumers and
another defends against financial crimes.
📊Many large institutions must
submit to all of them.
Senior managers of an
average bank today spend
some 42% of their time on
compliance-
related tasks. Worse, such
fragmentation at times allows risks to fall through the
cracks.
📉 It’s true that the
US has
too many regulators — including the
Federal Reserve, the Treasury Department’s Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. — in addition to
state banking authorities. A
better approach would be to create a
single prudential authority charged with
protecting the financial system.
