Eight Years After Passage of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, Key Provisions Will Now Be Implemented
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
2007-190
Washington, D.C., Sept. 19, 2007 - Ending eight years of stalled negotiations and impasse, the Commission today voted to adopt, jointly with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board), new rules that will finally implement the bank broker provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999. The Board will consider these final rules at its Sept. 24, 2007 meeting. The Commission and the Board consulted with and sought the concurrence of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and Office of Thrift Supervision.
there were rules on who could be a broker.
the Bush team held back those rules for 8 years
first you blame it on the repeal of Glass-Steagall; now you're ranting bout brokers
ur all over the place; making a fool of yourself
the rules where in GS you idiot.
they were also in GLB act.
But BUSH made sure they were never implemented until right before the crash
