On December 4th, Paul Clark presented a seminar titled “Introduction to Banking Law”. The seminar covered the fundamentals of banking regulation, including current issues confronting the industry after the financial crisis. Among the issues covered in the seminar were the following: when a banking license is required, the basic business of banking, the state/federal dual regulatory scheme, FDIC insurance, the Bank Holding Company Act, the dismantling of the Glass-Steagall Act, the growth of federal regulation after each banking crisis, the significant changes made by the Dodd-Frank Act and the implementation of the Basel III Accord.
