  • Glass-Steagall: the American Nightmare That Became the Israeli Dream
    Fordham Journal of Corporate & Financial Law Volume 9, Number 2 2004 Article 7 Glass-Steagall: The American Nightmare that Became the Israeli Dream Ehud Ofer∗ ∗ Copyright c 2004 by the authors. Fordham Journal of Corporate & Financial Law is produced by The Berkeley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/jcfl GLASS-STEAGALL: THE AMERICAN NIGHTMARE THAT BECAME THE ISRAELI DREAM Ehud Ofer* INTRODUCTION This Note will examine the securities activities of banks in Israel. The relatively new legislation dealing with this aspect-Regulation of Investment Advice and Investment Portfolio Management Law (the "Law")-was enacted in 1995 as a lesson learned from the Share Regulation Affair of October 1983 (the "Share Regulation Affair" or the "Crisis of 1983"). In many ways in economic history, 1983 was for Israel what 1929 was for the United States. This Note will compare Israel's episode with the U.S. episode and will use the comparison to review the adequacy of the Israeli legislative response to the Crisis of 1983. The Law was enacted, primarily, based on American experience and legislation. This Note will compare the legislation enacted in both countries. To better understand the differences, this Note will introduce the unique financial market in Israel. Furthermore, this Note will present the recent legislative development in the United States (i.e., Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act) which repealed parts of the Depression-era Glass-Steagall Act. The Note will examine the necessity of Israeli "adjustments" to the Law due to this new development. * Ehud Ofer is a graduate of the LL.M. program in Banking, Corporate and Finance Law at Fordham University School of Law.

There are so many deals to near and far away places that it is no longer feasible to offer "specials" to anywhere —just know that they exist all the time to everywhere!!! This last weekend Carol and I spent a very special 4 days at the new Anassa Hotel — 35 minutes drive from the Paphos Airport in Cyprus, which is in itself only a 45 minute flight from Tel Aviv. I can honestly say that the hotel is without doubt the finest hotel I have ever stayed at — a real masterpiece — on the sea, beautiful setting, great food, but wow, it is expensive!!! — something to save for a special occasion. Give me a call and Til fill you in on all the details.
