Trump administration

As President Trump signed the regulatory relief bill into law on Thursday, most of the attention was on a provision to help regional banks with more than $50 billion of assets. But a majority of the new law is aimed at helping institutions below $10 billion. Here's how.

The industry’s biggest legislative victory in a decade made it to the finish line Thursday.

It's too late for Congress to overturn the consumer bureau's regulation on short-term lending, but acting Director Mick Mulvaney will have plenty of chances to reshape it.

The bill heads to President Trump for signing; U.S. banks earned an aggregate $56 billion in the quarter, including a boost from tax reform.

A new FDIC chair could be confirmed as early as this week, but the current head of the agency is reportedly Democrats' choice to serve as vice chairman.

The CFPB is looking to rescind Obama-era policy that allowed it to punish banks and financial firms for unintentional discrimination.

The CFPB policy was aimed at preventing discriminatory markups on indirect loans made by car dealers, but current acting CFPB Director Mick Mulvaney said the guidance "seemed like a solution in search of a problem."

Why both Republicans and Democrats are exaggerating legislative changes to the Dodd-Frank Act.

With Congress set to approve a regulatory relief bill and vote on an FDIC chairman, banks will soon see the deregulation they’ve long been anticipating.

Jelena McWilliams is expected to be easily approved by the full Senate when her nomination as FDIC chair comes up for a vote.
