Important Financial Laws and Regulations You Should Know

Financial laws and rules govern what financial institutions such as banks, brokers, and investment companies can do. These rules are generally put into effect by government regulators or international groups to protect investors, maintain orderly markets, and promote financial stability.

After the 2008 financial crisis, governments across the world were empowered to push for financial reforms designed to provide greater transparency of transactions and reduce risk, in order to make financial systems more stable and better regulated and to make global markets safer.

The financial laws & regulation glossary compiles a list of 140 most common terms you’re likely to encounter in alphabetical order. Every law and regulation is explained in detail, with clear and concise article style description and practical examples.

Great book on redlining history

Very helpful for our everyday living and life hacks.. thumbs up for me. I would take this course again...

In depth yet easy to comprehend

In 2013, there were only 936 Savings and Loans, according to the FDIC. The agency supervised almost half of them. Today, S&Ls are like any other bank, thanks to the FIRREA bailout of the 1980s. Most S&Ls that remain can offer banking services similar to other commercial banks, including checking and savings accounts.

a Surprise Gem

I love Herold's courses! He breaks the subject down into small bites that are easy to consume. I've added in my audible library for a few more of his courses and am excited to learn more!

Incredible method

Commercial banks are the most common financial institutions in the United States, with total financial assets of about $13.5 trillion (85 percent of the total assets of the banking institutions).

A lot better than expected

I totally enjoyed the course. I feel that it will be helpful going forward in my life. I feel that Thomas Herold broke the law and regulations down into something that can be easily understood. It's a great course.
