Financial Regulatory Reform and Modernization - The Forum supports modernization and reform of the financial regulatory system to ensure the safety and soundness of financial institutions, the stability of the U.S. financial system and the protection of the varied interests of depositors, consumers, and investors. H.R. 4173, the "Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act" and S. 3217, the "Restoring American Financial Stability Act" (Conference Report) - The Forum supports financial regulatory reform that would: 1) establish resolution authority to end "too-big-to-fail", 2) enhance consumer protections, 3) regulate over-the-counter derivatives; and, 4) designate a "systemic supervisor." The Forum opposes legislation to preemptively dismantle or limit the activities of well-capitalized and well-managed financial institutions, believes that imposing haircuts on secured creditors to financial institutions in resolution would introduce systemic risk into the financial system, supports maintaining the establishment of uniform national banking to ensure an efficient banking system, supports retaining supervisory authority of the Federal Reserve and supports post-funding of a new systemic risk resolution fund. The Forum supports risk retention requirements for mortgage originators and securitizers and establishing a new Office of Insurance within the Treasury Department. The Forum supports enhancement of consumer protection. The Forum supports working with policy makers to ensure that consumers, depositors, investors, and policyholders enjoy the world's most steadfast and effective protection of their interests. The Forum supports executive compensation policies that reward attention to risk management and aligns incentives with the long-term viability and safety and soundness of financial institutions. Derivatives are important tools that enable companies to minimize and manage their exposure to a wide range of risks, thereby freeing up vital capital for other uses. The Forum believes that financial derivatives should be subject to prudential supervision and supports the establishment of a systemic risk supervisor to monitor, assess and address systemic risk, in continuous interaction with functional regulators to address any threats to the financial system, including in the derivatives markets. H.R. 4375 & S. 2886, the "Glass-Steagall Restoration Act" - The Forum supports retaining a provision in the "Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act" that allows for the creation of financial holding companies (FHC) in which the FHC serves as an umbrella corporation for other financial subsidiaries. The Glass-Steagall Restoration Act would repeal this provision. The financial holding company structure did not contribute to the financial crisis. The Forum believes the appropriate policy response is enhanced supervision to minimize financial instability, coupled with resolution authority to end "too-big-to-fail." APEC Privacy Framework - The Forum supports an APEC Privacy Framework that does not unduly restrict the global flow of data which is vital for financial institutions to meet customer needs and serve them efficiently. Capital Requirements - The Forum supports regulatory capital requirements that ensure safety, soundness, and systemic stability while not undermining lending that stimulates economic growth and job creation. Capital Market Competitiveness generally - The Forum supports the free flow of capital and open and competitive U.S. markets. The Forum also supports maintaining the United States as an attractive place for investment and a continued leader in the global economy.

Financial Regulatory Reform and Modernization - The Forum supports modernization and reform of the financial regulatory system to ensure the safety and soundness of financial institutions, the stability of the U.S. financial system and the protection of the varied interests of depositors, consumers, and investors. H.R. 4173, "the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act" and S. 3217, "the Restoring American Financial Stability Act" (Committee Print) - The Forum supports financial regulatory reform that would: 1) establish resolution authority to end "too-big-to-fail", 2) enhance consumer protections; 3) regulate over-the-counter derivatives; and, 4) designate a "systemic supervisor." The Forum opposes legislation to preemptively dismantle or limit the activities of well-capitalized and well-managed financial institutions, believes that imposing haircuts on secured creditors to financial institutions in resolution would introduce systemic risk into the financial system, supports maintaining the establishment of uniform national banking to ensure an efficient banking system, opposes calculating risk based deposit assessments on an insured depository's total assets rather than total domestic deposits, supports retaining supervisory authority of the Federal Reserve and supports post-funding of a new systemic risk resolution fund. The Forum supports risk retention requirements for mortgage originators and securitizers and establishing a new Office of Insurance within the Treasury Department. The Forum supports enhancement of consumer protection and believes that it should be a part of the policy response to the financial crisis. The Forum supports working with policy makers to ensure that consumers, depositors, investors, and policyholders enjoy the world's most steadfast and effective protection of their interests. The Forum supports executive compensation policies that reward attention to risk management and aligns incentives with the long-term viability and safety and soundness of financial institutions. H.R. 4375 & S. 2886, "the Glass-Steagall Restoration Act" - The Forum supports retaining a provision in "the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act" that allows for the creation of financial holding companies (FHC) in which the FHC serves as an umbrella corporation for other financial subsidiaries. The Glass-Stegall Restoration Act would repeal this provision. The financial holding company structure structure did not contribute to the financial crisis. The Forum believes the appropriate policy response is enhanced supervision to minimize financial instability, coupled with resolution authority to end "too-big-to-fail." H.R. 3795, the Over the Counter Derivatives Markets Act, H.R. 2454, "the American Clean Energy and Security Act," H.R. 2448 "the Prevent Unfair Manipulation of Prices Act," H.R. 977, "the Derivatives Markets Transparency and Accountability Act" - Derivatives are important tools that enable companies to minimize and manage their exposure to a wide range of risks, thereby freeing up vital capital for other uses. The Forum believes that financial derivatives should be subject to prudential supervision and supports the establishment of a systemic risk supervisor to monitor, assess and address systemic risk, in continuous interaction with functional regulators to address any threats to the financial system, including in the derivatives markets. APEC Privacy Framework - The Forum supports an APEC Privacy Framework that does not unduly restrict the global flow of data which is vital for financial institutions to meet customer needs and serve them efficiently. Capital Requirements - The Forum supports regulatory capital requirements that ensure safety, soundness and systemic stability while not undermining lending that stimulates economic growth and job creation. Capital Market Competitiveness generally - The Forum supports the free flow of capital and open and competitive U.S. markets. The Forum also supports maintaining the United States as an attractive place for investment and a continued leader in the global economy.

Financial Regulatory Reform and Modernization - The Forum supports modernization and reform of the financial regulatory system to ensure the safety and soundness of financial institutions, the stability of the U.S. financial system and the protection of the varied interests of depositors, consumers, and investors. H.R. 4173, "the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act" and "the Restoring American Financial Stability Act" (Committee Print) - The Forum supports financial regulatory reform that would: 1) establish resolution authority to end "too-big-to- fail" 2) enhance consumer protections; 3) regulate over-the-counter derivatives; and, 4) designate a systemic supervisor. The Forum opposes legislation to preemptively dismantle or limit the activities of well-capitalized and well-managed financial institutions, believes that imposing haircuts on secured creditors to financial institutions in resolution would introduce systemic risk into the financial system, opposes limits on ownership of clearinghouses, exchanges and swap execution facilitations, supports maintaining the establishment of uniform national banking to ensure an efficient banking system, opposes calculating risk based deposit assessments on an insured depository's total assets rather than total domestic deposits, retaining supervisory authority of the Federal Reserve and opposes prefunding of a new systemic risk resolution fund. The Forum supports risk retention requirements for mortgage originators and securitizers and establishing a new Office of Insurance within the Treasury Department. The Forum supports enhancement of consumer protection and believes that it should be a part of the policy response to the financial crisis. The Forum supports working with policy makers to ensure that consumers, depositors, investors, and policyholders enjoy the world's most steadfast and effective protection of their interests. The Forum supports executive compensation policies that reward attention to risk management and aligns incentives with the long-term viability and safety and soundness of financial institutions. H.R. 4375 & S. 2886, "the Glass-Steagall Restoration Act" - The Forum supports retaining a provision in "the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act" that allows for the creation of financial holding companies (FHC) in which the FHC serves as an umbrella corporation for other financial subsidiaries. The Glass-Stegall Restoration Act would repeal this provision. The Forum opposes the legislation because this corporate structure did not contribute to the financial crisis. The Forum believes the appropriate policy response is enhanced supervision to minimize financial instability, coupled with resolution authority to end "too-big-to-fail." H.R. 3795, the Over the Counter Derivatives Markets Act, H.R. 2454, "the American Clean Energy and Security Act," H.R. 2448 "the Prevent Unfair Manipulation of Prices Act," H.R. 977, "the Derivatives Markets Transparency and Accountability Act" - Derivatives are important tools that enable companies to minimize and manage their exposure to a wide range of risks, thereby freeing up vital capital for other uses. The Forum believes that financial derivatives should be subject to prudential supervision and supports the establishment of a systemic risk supervisor to monitor, assess and address systemic risk, in continuous interaction with functional regulators to address any threats to the financial system, including in the derivatives markets. APEC Privacy Framework - The Forum supports an APEC Privacy Framework that does not unduly restrict the global flow of data which is vital for financial institutions to meet customer needs and serve them efficiently. Capital Requirements - The Forum supports regulatory capital requirements that ensure safety, soundness and systemic stability while not undermining lending that stimulates economic growth and job creation. Capital Market Competitiveness generally - The Forum supports the free flow of capital and open and competitive U.S. markets. The Forum also supports maintaining the United States as an attractive place for investment and a continued leader in the global economy.
