Understanding the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act emerged in response to the financial crisis of 2008, aiming to promote financial stability in the United States. It seeks to end the "too big to fail" bailouts of financial firms, improve accountability and transparency within the financial system, and protect consumers from abusive financial services practices.
Agencies like the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Commodities Future Trading Commission (CFTC), Federal Reserve System, Department of the Treasury, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) are central in implementing and enforcing the regulations under this act.
Why Monitoring Dodd-Frank Matters
