US190 - Streamlined, Modern Financial Regulation
Description
Arguments
1 of 3
The Dodd-Frank financial reform law has significantly increased the costs and reduced the viability of small, community banks upon which Connecticut’s small businesses rely for business loans. This law mandated some 259 rules along with its 188 other rule suggestions – all of which will be decided by unelected bureaucrats. Financial regulation should focus on disclosure and transparency. While certain parts of the law are praiseworthy, too much is left unidentified. We must amend the regulations to make sure business growth is not obstructed and lending to Connecticut’s small businesses is trouble-free.
