Fomer Fed chairman Volcker's comment letter responds to criticsm of the Volcker Rule in Feb. 2012

07/09/2010

Mr. Volcker says the Volcker rule restricting proprietary trading will make the U.S. financial system safer and healthier. He responds to the objection that it will reduce liquidity and increase borrowing rates by saying that too much liquidity is the problem because financial firms tend to bid up asset prices thinking they can always find a buyer. Some of the complexity in the rule Volcker says, stems from the request from financial firms to define what is and is not proprietary trading. The rle goes into effect in July 2012 under the Dodd-Frank legislation.

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.
