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.
