  • Financial Services and Cybersecurity: the Federal Role
    Financial Services and Cybersecurity: The Federal Role Updated March 23, 2016 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R44429 Financial Services and Cybersecurity: The Federal Role Summary Multiple federal and state regulators oversee companies in the financial services industry. Regulatory authority is often directed at particular functions or financial services activities rather than at particular entities or companies. It is, therefore, likely that a financial services company with multiple product lines—deposits, securities, insurance—will find that it must answer to different regulators with respect to particular aspects of its operations. Five federal agencies oversee depository institutions, two regulate securities, several agencies have discrete authority over various segments of the financial sector, and several self-regulatory organizations monitor entities in the securities business. Federal banking regulators (the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Reserve, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) are required to promulgate safety and soundness standards for all federally insured depository institutions to protect the stability of the nation’s banking system. Some of these standards pertain to cybersecurity issues, including information security, data breaches, and destruction or theft of business records. The federal securities regulators (the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission) have asserted authority over various aspects of cybersecurity in securities markets and those who trade in them. This includes requiring publicly traded financial and nonfinancial corporations to file annual and quarterly reports that provide investors with material information, a category which could include information about cybersecurity risks or breaches. In addition, overseeing the securities industry are certain self-regulatory organizations—private organizations empowered by law or regulation to create and enforce industry rules, including those covering cybersecurity.

EVALUATING BANK COMMERCIAL PAPER PLACEMENT ACTIVITY UNDER THE GLASS-STEAGALL ACT The Glass-Steagall Act' ("The Act") generally prohibits commercial banks from engaging in investment banking activities.2 In response to the recent growth of the financial services market, however, commercial banks have begun to offer services which traditionally the investment banking sector only offered.3 For example, banks now participate in the commercial paper market. Understandably, the investment banking in- dustry has complained about this activity.4 The industry has argued that the Act prohibits any bank involvement in the commercial paper market.5 The Act prohibits banks from underwriting securities.6 Although in Securities Industry Association v. Board of Governors (Bankers Trust) the Supreme Court concluded that commercial paper was a security for pur- poses of Glass-Steagall,7 it has not ruled whether any bank involvement in the commercial paper market constitutes a "per se" violation of the 1.

Among the most controversial components of this system is the Glass-Steagall Act,$ which 1. See Reform of the Nation's Banking and FinancialSystems: Hearings Before the Subcomm. on FinancialInstitutions Supervision, Regulation and Insurance of the House Comm. on Banking, Finance and Urban Affairs, 100th Cong., 1st Sess. 10 (1987) (statement of L. William Seidman, Chairman, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) ("[A]ny threat to the banking system is a threat to consumer services and savings, the intermediation process, private sector liquidity, the payment system and, most importantly, the U.S. economy."). 2. Responsibility for regulating the country's more than 14,000 commercial banks is divided among the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), state banking agencies, the Securities and Exchange Com- mission (SEC), and the Department of Justice. The OCC regulates banks with charters issued by the federal government ("national banks"). Banks with state-issued charters that are members of the Fed- eral Reserve System (state "member" banks) are regulated by the Federal Reserve Board and their state regulatory agency. State-chartered banks that are not members of the Federal Reserve System (state "non-member" banks) are regulated by their state regulator and, if they are federally insured, by the FDIC.

  • Shared Roots: the Federal Reserve System and the Farm Credit System
    Shared Roots: The Federal Reserve System and the Farm Credit System James N. Putnam II 1 May 12, 2015 The agricultural credit system, created by the Federal Farm Loan Act, was modeled upon the federal reserve system in its general outline as well as in many details. W. Stull Holt, 1924, p. 8. Introduction On December 23, 1913, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act (FRA) into law creating the Federal Reserve System. Just thirty-one months later, on July 17, 1916, he signed the Farm Loan Act (FLA) into law, the first step in creating the Farm Credit System. The Federal Reserve celebrated its Centennial in 2013-14 and the Farm Credit System will do so in 2015-16. The close timing of the passage of the Federal Reserve Act and the Farm Loan Act was no random coincidence. Passage of the Federal Reserve Act was also the opening act of the legislative history of the Farm Loan Act. By reluctantly throwing their support behind the Federal Reserve Act, agrarian advocates gained political IOUs that later helped to ensure passage of the Farm Loan Act. The Federal Reserve Act became the template for the Farm Loan Act, launching a Farm Credit System committed to serving the financial needs of agriculture and rural America. The Federal Reserve System and the Farm Credit System share much common history from the early 1900s: x The enabling Acts for both Systems were instigated by economic events from the preceding decade. Indeed, frustrations well back into the 1800s created momentum for both Acts.
