After the finance collapse, Obama also asked the govt. to pass the Volcker rule. This is a law implemented that heavily prohibits the fiscal institutions from making any kind of speculative investments that in no way benefit their customers. This controlling is claimed to be implemented on July 21st 2012.
The bottom line is that after a comprehensive inquiry by the Financial Crisis Investigation Commission into the monetary crisis of 2008, it was discovered the main cause of the melt down was because of a far-ranging failure and indeed a total abuse of financial rules. This is not something that President Obama was ever going to kick back and simply shrug his shoulders, or cross his fingers and hope that it never occurred again. As an alternative he had to put plans in place to make sure that it didn't.
Except for the commission for regulation, the qui tam laws ensure that the government has all of their bases covered from the interior out. However though a large percentage of people see it as a good move, it's the biggest piece of fiscal legislation since the great depression of the 1930′s and as a consequence there's also lots of opposition to the bill. As an example, many folks say that it's far too limiting and will only be seen to suppress any plans the US has to expand overseas, thus weakening the North American economy in the long run. Others see it as a costly counter action to a lesson supposedly learned.
For the moment Obama has his hands decisively on the reigns of the monetary institutions and like a tiny child who has already wandered off unaided, he definitely isn’t going to permit this to happen again. That asserted it's been a year since the Dodd Frank Bill was brought into play so have things really changed?
Well, it has to be said although unemployment has remained high, the Dow is up around twenty percent since June of 2010 and indexes of tiny company stocks have also increased by around 30 percent. The excessive risk taking systems that were initiated by Wall Street before the melt down that only fuelled the chaos, have been absolutely stifled. Now there is a surer and calmer approach to how Wall Street trades as the government look on. The Frank Dodd Reform Act is a potent piece of legislation and love it or don't like it; it definitely looks as if it’s here for good.
