Wall Street Journal 10/28/2010
Paul Volcker's fading influence on the Obama administration.
04/11/2009
Former Fed chairman Paul Volcker added to the credibility of the incoming Obama administration during the early days. Now his advice about the need to reinstate a wall between banking for taking federally insured deposits and making loans, from investment banking's trading in securtities, is beig ignored. He does not think regulation will be effective. One reason our system does not work thay way. Influential bankers can water down financial regulation in Congress.

Lighter banking regulation in the U.S. compared to the stricter regulation proposed in Britain- 2011-2012
04/07/2011
The structural separation of investment banking and trading activities of banks from deposit taking activity, that is proposed by the Independent Commission on Banking in Britain. This is different from the Volcker Rule in the U.S., which sets rules banks are required to follow to constrain risktaking activity by the trading arm of banks. In practice only a lighter form of the Volcker Rule has been adopted in the U.S., and the rules are not clearly defined. Ring fencing of risk taking activities at banks is an important part of British regulation, an approach also adopted by Germany.

After the reforms: Safer, but not yet safe enough
Economist 05/21/2011
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
