Like the fall weather and the Philadelphia Phillies, regulatory restructuring isn’t going away anytime soon. The House Financial Services Committee is entering its third week of markups for new financial legislation and the Treasury Department is due to release a bill on new segments of the reform effort.

Tuesday

House Financial Services will begin marking up investor protection and credit rating agency legislation at 10am.

Wednesday

The House Committee on Government Oversight and Reform is holding an 11am hearing on executive compensation. Obama administration pay czar Kenneth Feinberg is expected to testify.
