Maintaining Capital In The Secondary Mortgage Market: Housing Finance Reform And The Liquidity Coverage Ratio, Eric S. Anderson Mar 2015

Maintaining Capital In The Secondary Mortgage Market: Housing Finance Reform And The Liquidity Coverage Ratio, Eric S. Anderson

North Carolina Banking Institute

This Note argues that the recently adopted LCR rule must be accounted for in any housing finance reform bill passed by Congress, and may potentially require a rewrite of certain aspects of the rule in order to prevent serious harm to the primary and secondary mortgage markets, banks, and the U.S. economy. This Note focuses on the wisdom of excluding certain asset classes, namely private label mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") and collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"), from the LCR rule’s definition of HQLA.


Altering The Deal: The Importance Of Gse Shareholder Litigation, Joseph W. Silva Mar 2015

Altering The Deal: The Importance Of Gse Shareholder Litigation, Joseph W. Silva

North Carolina Banking Institute

It is the overarching goal of this Note to provide a broad framework for understanding the issues at stake in current dividend sweep litigation against the Government. Specifically, this Note asserts that although Perry and similarly situated plaintiffs bringing APA-based actions rightfully question the Government’s reasoning in entering the Third Amendment, HERA’s anti-injunction provision presents what is likely an insurmountable jurisdiction problem for dividend sweep litigation plaintiffs. This Note proceeds in four parts. Part II provides a general background of the GSEs’ history, role in the secondary mortgage market, and path to conservatorship. Part III summarizes the arguments Perry and …

Rocky Mountain High: The Impact Of Federal Guidance To Banks On The Marijuana Industry, Tyler T. Buckner Mar 2015

Rocky Mountain High: The Impact Of Federal Guidance To Banks On The Marijuana Industry, Tyler T. Buckner

North Carolina Banking Institute

This Note considers the implications of these recent federal guidelines issued to financial institutions with respect to their freedom to do business with the state-sanctioned marijuana industry. It also discusses whether viable legal alternatives might be available to allow growth in the burgeoning marijuana markets while still remaining faithful to the federal government’s position regarding marijuana as a dangerous drug worthy of prohibition. This Note attempts to balance competing economic and governmental interests in an emerging industry that continues to evolve amid a tumultuous national landscape. This Note argues that current guidelines are excessively onerous for financial institutions and without …


The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, And Enforcement Act Of 1989: The Effect Of The “Self-Affecting” Theory On Financial Institutions, Filmon M. Sexton Mar 2015

The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, And Enforcement Act Of 1989: The Effect Of The “Self-Affecting” Theory On Financial Institutions, Filmon M. Sexton

North Carolina Banking Institute

This Note addresses why the Self-Affecting Theory misinterprets § 1833a. This Note argues that in cases where the DOJ could bring, but is unwilling or unable to bring, criminal actions, a federally insured financial institution should not be held civilly liable under § 1833a for engaging in fraudulent conduct "affecting" that same institution. The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") does not define what it means to "affect[] a federally insured financial institution." Congressional intent demonstrates that Congress enacted § 1833a in response to the pervasive insider abuse and fraud of the savings and loan crisis …

Part V discusses whether regulation of first-party lenders is statutorily feasible, or even necessary, and addresses some of the practical barriers to such regulation. Part VI concludes by arguing that, while additional regulation of first-party …

Clarifying What Is “Clear”: Reconsidering Whistleblower Protections Under Dodd-Frank, Caroline E. Keen

North Carolina Banking Institute

This Note argues that the Fifth Circuit’s holding should be disregarded and the definition of a whistleblower should be expanded to include those who report potential securities laws violations internally, in addition to those who report directly to the SEC. This Note proceeds in four parts. Part II explains the differences between the anti- retaliation provisions of SOX and Dodd-Frank. Part III provides an overview of the approach taken by the Fifth Circuit in adopting a restrictive definition of whistleblower in Asadi.
