Recent Development: New Limits On Banks Lending To Foreign Nations, Charles S. Sanger Jan 1984

Recent Development: New Limits On Banks Lending To Foreign Nations, Charles S. Sanger

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

Although not directly tied to the foreign debt problem, the recent loss of congressional confidence in United States bank regulatory agencies caused by the failure of the Continental Illinois Bank may also compel reevaluation of the Act. The purported failure of the regulators to discover the extent of Continental Illinois' imprudent loans has led several legislators and regulators to call for greater supervision of lending institutions.
