Leadership at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is expected to be resolved quickly after a federal court Monday assigned a judge appointed by President Trump to resolve a lawsuit over who will become the agency's acting director.

The Trump administration insisted Saturday that OMB Director Mick Mulvaney was the rightful interim leader of the CFPB, but Democrats said that the appointment was illegal. It remains unclear who is legally in charge.

New York Fed chief cautions against taking “meat cleaver” to Dodd-Frank; Stephanie Cohen, one of the highest-ranking women at the bank, will try finding new sources of revenue.

Bankers are generally happy with the House Republican tax plan released last week, but one provision of the proposed overhaul is likely to give them pause: a cutback in the deduction for deposit insurance premiums.

Top executives at nineteen regional banks sent a letter to the Senate Banking Committee endorsing a bill that would change the systemically important financial institution threshold from $50 billion in assets to an indicator test.
