Trump established the policy of his Administration to regulate the U.S. finan- cial system in a manner consistent with a set of Core Principles. These principles were set forth in Executive Order 13772 on February 3, 2017. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury), under the direction of Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin, prepared this report in response to that Executive Order. The reports issued pursuant to the Executive Order identify laws, treaties, regula- tions, guidance, reporting and record keeping requirements, and other Government policies that promote or inhibit Federal regulation of the U.S. financial system in a manner consistent with the Core Principles. The Core Principles are: A. Empower Americans to make independent financial decisions and informed choices in the marketplace, save for retirement, and build individual wealth; B. Prevent taxpayer-funded bailouts; C. Foster economic growth and vibrant financial markets through more rigorous regulatory impact analysis that addresses systemic risk and market failures, such as moral hazard and information asymmetry; D. Enable American companies to be competitive with foreign firms in domestic and foreign markets; E. Advance American interests in international financial regulatory negotiations and meetings; F. Make regulation efficient, effective, and appropriately tailored; and G. Restore public accountability within Federal financial regulatory agencies and rationalize the Federal financial regulatory framework. Scope of This Report The financial system encompasses a wide variety of institutions and services, and accordingly, Treasury is delivering a series of four reports related to the Executive Order covering: • The depository system, covering banks, savings associations, and credit unions of all sizes, types and regulatory charters (the Banking Report,1 which was publicly released on June 12, 2017); • Capital markets: debt, equity, commodities and derivatives markets, central clearing and other operational functions (this report); 1.

  • Analysis of Securitized Asset Liquidity June 2017 an He and Bruce Mizrach1
    Analysis of Securitized Asset Liquidity June 2017 An He and Bruce Mizrach1 1. Introduction This research note extends our prior analysis2 of corporate bond liquidity to the structured products markets. We analyze data from the TRACE3 system, which began collecting secondary market trading activity on structured products in 2011. We explore two general categories of structured products: (1) real estate securities, including mortgage-backed securities in residential housing (MBS) and commercial building (CMBS), collateralized mortgage products (CMO) and to-be-announced forward mortgages (TBA); and (2) asset-backed securities (ABS) in credit cards, autos, student loans and other miscellaneous categories. Consistent with others,4 we find that the new issue market for securitized assets decreased sharply after the financial crisis and has not yet rebounded to pre-crisis levels. Issuance is below 2007 levels in CMBS, CMOs and ABS. MBS issuance had recovered by 2012 but has declined over the last four years. By contrast, 2016 issuance in the corporate bond market was at a record high for the fifth consecutive year, exceeding $1.5 trillion. Consistent with the new issue volume decline, the median age of securities being traded in non-agency CMO are more than ten years old. In student loans, the average security is over seven years old. Over the last four years, secondary market trading volumes in CMOs and TBA are down from 14 to 27%. Overall ABS volumes are down 16%. Student loan and other miscellaneous ABS declines balance increases in automobiles and credit cards. By contrast, daily trading volume in the most active corporate bonds is up nearly 28%.

  • Diversity in the Legal Profession
    Diversity In The Legal Profession: The More Things Change, The More They Stay The Same – Until They Don’t The stated desire to address the diversity imbalance may give way to real change if peoples’ wallets depend on it. French writer Alphonse Karr famously wrote “plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose” – the more things change, the more they stay the same. This often seems true in the legal industry, especially when it comes to chronic challenges and the shared desire to bring about positive change. David recently attended HBR Consulting’s Legal Lab, an annual gathering of select industry leaders brought together by HBR (David serves on HBR’s Advisory Board). This year’s Legal Lab included individuals holding a diverse set of roles at law firms, law departments and technology companies, and addressed four key areas influencing the industry: law departments, large law firms, talent management and staffing, and technology. As expected, numerous challenges and opportunities were discussed, and the discourse was transparent and refreshing. Notably, one issue surfaced in every discussion, and throughout the event: diversity and inclusion. Nearly every participant discussed the industry’s need to create more diverse and inclusive workplaces, at firms and companies, and the benefits that would accompany such a change. Those same leaders agreed that despite decades of effort, no firm or company had cracked the code toward moving the needle. Many articles have discussed the disappointing statistics of legal industry diversity. For an overview, see the following, among many others: Americans Rank Law Firms Dead Last In Commitment To Diversity Minorities In The Legal Profession Have Barely Increased Since 2000 In summary, despite two decades of extensive efforts, gender and other diversity at the partner and GC level is essentially unchanged.
