Fed Website Tracks Progress of Federal Banking Reform Rules

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, signed into law by President Obama on July 21, 2010, requires various federal agencies to issue over 200 rulemakings concerning numerous aspects of the financial industry. The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis has created a helpful web page tracking the progress of the various rulemakings required by the act. The page includes links to the full text for each rule being considered, identifies the agency considering the rule, and provides relevant dates. It has separate tabs for final rules, proposed rules, and rules open for public comment.
