The Outlook for Financial Reform
Loren Steffy - Business Columnist
The Houston Chronicle
A year and a half after the failure of Lehman Brothers, Congress has done little to address finance reform other than to acknowledge the need. The Obama administration has alternated between talking tough and mollifying Wall Street. No sooner did Obama embrace the so-called Volcker Rule than Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner began backing away from it. Will we have financial reform in the U.S.? If so, what will it look like? What are the consequences of doing nothing? Is Wall Street capable of learning from its mistakes? Houston Chronicle business columnist Loren Steffy will delve into this issue and take questions on this or other business-related topics.
