This title examines depository institution regulation and how federal statutes governing banking have been subject to constant amendment in recent years, especially since the mortgage market collapse and the ensuing worldwide crisis. It discusses the growing overlap in competition among depository institutions, insurance companies, and securities firms that has further complicated regulatory policy. Additional discussion covers the regulated environment of banking, entry rules, branching, control transactions, transactional rules, holding company activities, securities regulation, resolution of institution failures, international banking, and more.
