A Primer on Dodd-Frank's Title VIII

C. Baker

Chapter 11 in The First Great Financial Crisis of the 21st Century:A Retrospective, 2015, pp 283-298 from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: Although little known or discussed, Title VIII is one of the most important parts of Dodd-Frank. It expands the Federal Reserve's supervision and regulation of payment, clearing, and settlement systems. Most importantly, it greatly expands the potential coverage of the federal safety net. Accordingly, Title VIII bears upon many public policy issues, such as too-big-to-fail financial institutions. This chapter first provides an overview of the rationale behind Title VIII, then proceeds with a summary of its contents, and concludes by highlighting several of these policy considerations.
