Business Divisions From The Perspective Of The U.S. Banking System , Carl Felsenfeld, Genci Bilali

Faculty Scholarship

The Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 ("Act"),' as amended, most recently in 1999 by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ("GLB") divides all economic activity into five groups. These groups are: 1) banking, 2) activities closely related to and a proper incident to banking; 3) activities of a financial nature; 4) activities complimentary to those of a financial nature; and 5) activities not of a financial nature. This article will explore these five groups of activities separately. The policies behind the divisions will be analyzed and questioned whether they serve the policies behind the Act. This article will also question whether the …

Leasing Consumer Goods: The Spotlight Shifts To The Uniform Consumer Leases Act, Ralph J. Rohner Jan 2003

Leasing Consumer Goods: The Spotlight Shifts To The Uniform Consumer Leases Act, Ralph J. Rohner

Scholarly Articles

As a participant throughout the drafting process for the Uniform Consumer Leases Act ("U.C.L.A." or "the Act"), I believe that the Act deserves serious consideration in the state legislatures to fill gaps in existing consumer protections for consumer lessees. The Act complements the Uniform Commercial Code ("U.C.C.") Article 2A (Leases), which creates a basic legal framework for all leases of goods, commercial and consumer alike, and the federal Consumer Leasing Act, which prescribes advertising and disclosure rules for consumer leases. The U.C.L.A. is also intended to reinforce, or be reinforced by, certain existing state laws, such as those prohibiting unfair …

United Kingdom And United States Responses To The Regulatory Challenges Of Modern Financial Markets, Heidi Mandanis Schooner Jan 2003

United Kingdom And United States Responses To The Regulatory Challenges Of Modern Financial Markets, Heidi Mandanis Schooner

Scholarly Articles

The modernization of world financial markets over the last 20 years has raised profound regulatory challenges. Our article considers whether the United States' Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (GLB) and the United Kingdom's Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA) meet those challenges. We posit that the most compelling regulatory issue is not whether the financial industry should be allowed to consolidate. Rather, we believe that the organization and practices of the regulators, i.e., the question of which agencies regulate which firms and under what set of laws, should be the focal point. We call this an issue of regulatory modernization. …

Central Banks’ Role In Bank Supervision In The United States And United Kingdom, Heidi Mandanis Schooner Jan 2003

Central Banks’ Role In Bank Supervision In The United States And United Kingdom, Heidi Mandanis Schooner

Scholarly Articles

Driven in part by the question of bank supervision in euro-area countries, a growing body of literature addresses whether central banking and bank supervision should be combined. This paper address this debate in light of recent legislation in the United Kingdom and the United States. Recent legislation in the United Kingdom stripped the Bank of England of its responsibility for bank supervision and established the Financial Services Authority as an integrated supervisor of financial services. In the United States, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 expanded the regulatory authority of the Federal Reserve. In light of international trends, I consider how …
