After months of instability at some of the major European banks and the aftermath of the Brexit vote, since the election of Donald Trump as the US President all eyes are now on Wall Street. Trump has already announced he will dismantle the Dodd Frank Act that reformed the banks after the 2007-2008 financial crisis, which might follow a proposal for modifications already made in the House of Representatives. In the meantime, the European Commission (EC) has presented a 2017 legislative programme that is very limited for the financial sector.
In this edition of the Newsletter, Peter Wahl (WEED) explains the problems at Deutsche Bank, which is in the deepest crisis in its 150-year history. You can also find articles on European efforts to regulate high frequency trading and the latest swift actions by the EC on sustainable finance in the EU.
Happy reading! |
