    Bank Hapoalim B.M., Tel-Aviv, Israel 2016 Resolution Plan – Public Section Bank Hapoalim B.M. (“Bank Hapoalim”) is a publicly held banking corporation organized and operating under Israeli law, and subject to comprehensive supervision by the Bank of Israel. In the United States, Bank Hapoalim owns (through PCM-HSU Holdings, Inc., a Delaware-incorporated holding company) Hapoalim Securities USA, a Delaware-incorporated SEC-registered broker-dealer that has offices in New York, California, and Florida. Bank Hapoalim also operates Bank Hapoalim B.M. New York Branch (the “Insured Branch”), a New York state-licensed FDIC-insured branch; Bank Hapoalim B.M. Plaza Branch and Bank Hapoalim Americas Tower Branch, New York state-licensed uninsured branches; Bank Hapoalim B.M. Miami Branch, a Florida state-licensed uninsured branch; and Bank Hapoalim B.M. Los Angeles Representative Office, a California state-licensed representative office. Despite the relatively limited size of its US operations, Bank Hapoalim is subject to US resolution planning requirements under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act because it has consolidated assets on a global basis of over $50 billion. Because of the relatively limited size and simplified structure of its US operations, Bank Hapoalim’s initial resolution plan, filed in December 2013, was an abbreviated or “tailored” resolution plan and Banks Hapoalim’s second resolution plan, filed in December 2014, was a brief update to its 2013 plan. Based on their review of the 2014 plan, by letter dated July 24, 2015, the FDIC and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Agencies”) authorized Bank Hapoalim to file a resolution plan that focuses solely on (i) material changes to its 2014 resolution plan; (ii) any actions taken to strengthen the effectiveness of its plan; and (iii) its strategy for ensuring that the Insured Branch will be adequately protected from risks arising from the activities of Bank Hapoalim’s nonbank subsidiaries.

  • Understanding the FTC's Monetary Equitable Remedies Under Section
    Understanding the FTC’s monetary equitable remedies under Section 13(b) for antitrust violations By Gerald A. Stein, American Bar Association — Fall 2019 Until recently the Federal Trade Commission’s ability to seek monetary equitable remedies (particularly disgorgement and restitution) for alleged antitrust violations— whether ongoing, impending, or stale— went virtually unchallenged. After it first gained statutory authority under Section 13(b)1 of the FTC Act to bring suit in federal district court to preliminarily enjoin conduct that “is violating, or is about to violate” the antitrust laws, the FTC successfully convinced many federal courts that Section 13(b) also impliedly allowed the FTC to seek standalone permanent injunctions and monetary equitable remedies regardless of whether a defendant’s alleged anticompetitive conduct was ongoing or completed long ago.2 The FTC brought few antitrust cases in the years following the enactment for alleged antitrust violations pursuant to Section 13(b) where the alleged of Section 13(b) in 1973, and the agency formalized its conservative anticompetitive conduct was neither ongoing nor imminent. Next, in approach in its unanimously approved 2003 Policy Statement on Monetary FTC v. Credit Bureau Center LLC,5 the Seventh Circuit vacated an award for Equitable Remedies in Competition Cases. In 2012, however, the FTC restitution in a consumer protection case based on its determination that abruptly, and without providing an opportunity for public comment, Section 13(b) authorizes only restraining orders and injunctions. And, in a withdrew its 2003 Policy Statement, asserting that it created “an overly third case that is still pending, FTC v.

  • Domestically Owned Versus Foreign-Owned Banks in Israel
    Domestic bank intermediation: domestically owned versus foreign-owned banks in Israel David Marzuk1 1. The Israeli banking system – an overview A. The structure of the banking system and its scope of activity Israel has a highly developed banking system. At the end of June 2009, there were 23 banking corporations registered in Israel, including 14 commercial banks, two mortgage banks, two joint-service companies and five foreign banks. Despite the spate of financial deregulation in recent years, the Israeli banking sector still plays a key role in the country’s financial system and overall economy. It is also highly concentrated – the five main banking groups (Bank Hapoalim, Bank Leumi, First International Bank, Israel Discount Bank and Mizrahi-Tefahot Bank) together accounted for 94.3% of total assets as of June 2009. The two largest groups (Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim) accounted for almost 56.8% of total assets. The sector as a whole and the large banking groups in particular are organised around the concept of “universal” banking, in which commercial banks offer a full range of retail and corporate banking services. Those services include: mortgages, leasing and other forms of finance; brokerage in the local and foreign capital markets; underwriting and investment banking; and numerous specialised services. Furthermore, until the mid-1990s, the banking groups were deeply involved in non-financial activities. However, a law passed in 1996 forced the banks to divest their controlling stakes in non-financial companies and conglomerates (including insurance companies). This development was part of a privatisation process which was almost completed in 2005 (with the important exception of Bank Leumi).

  • A Description and Analysis of the Implementation of the Concentration Law and Its Economic
    A Description and Analysis of the Implementation of the Concentration Law and Its Economic Impact on the Israeli Economy Written by: Noam Botosh, Economist | Approved by: Ami Tzadik, Head of the Budgetary Control Department Date: February 25rd 2020 Economic Review www.knesset.gov.il/mmm Knesset Research and Information Center 1 | A Description and Analysis of the Implementation of the Concentration Law and Its Economic Impact on the Israeli Economy Summary This review was written at the request of MK Ofer Shelah, and it addresses the implementation of the Law for Promotion of Competition and Reduction of Concentration, 5774-2013 (herein, "the Concentration Law" or "the Law") and provides a preliminary analysis of the Law's impact on the Israeli economy. A Bank of Israel study from 2009 about business groups showed that, compared to other developed countries, the level of concentration in Israel is high, as reflected in the number of existing business groups, and that these groups possess high levels of financial leverage. The study suggested that this structure of business groups may constitute a risk to Israel's financial stability due to the groups' size and complexity. In October 2010, the Committee on Increasing Competitiveness in the Economy was established in order to examine general market competitiveness in Israel—mainly due to the existence of large business groups— and to recommend possible policy tools to promote market competitiveness. According to the committee's interim report, which was published in October 2011, the ownership structure of public companies in Israel is centralized, and the committee identified a phenomenon of large business groups controlling a large share of real and financial assets.
