Abstract: This paper presents the major changes in financial regulation in the United States starting with the historical background and concluding with the most recent measures contained in, or mandated by, the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act. It will present the most important changes in regulatory legislation proposed in the aftermath of the 2007-8 crisis intended to prevent a collapse of the financial system similar to the recent crisis.
