Financial Acts
The Gramm-Leach Bliley (GLB) al, or the Financial Modernization Act, refers to a
regulation through an agreement between two federal parties passed in 1999 to modernize the
financial sector.
It permitted commercial banks' investments and insurance offers to reverse
massive swathes in 1993 of the Glass-Steagall Act and the 1956 Bank Holding Act, which
allowed commercial banks to offer financial services like insurance and investments. This act, in
addition, controls the way financial institutions handle the private details of their customers. This
act comprises three sections:
The Financial Privacy Rule which regulates how private information is collected and
disclosed. Secondly, the Safeguards Rule required the implementation of security measures in
financial institutions to protect the information of private institutions. The last section was the
pretexting rule that prohibited the pretense of pretexting private information. On the other hand,
the CAMELS rating system refers to an act that widens the availability of credit choices for
borrowers of low and moderate salaries (
Goodman
& Walsh, 2020)
. The act also evaluates
financial organizations based on safety and how they are.
The CAMELS rating system gives a letter grade based on the safety and soundness of
financial institutions.
Additionally, there is the Dodd-Frank Act, which was set for additional
financial restrictions (
Huang, 2019)
.
The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) dictates what
banks lend to low- and moderate-income earners. The three acts govern the banking sector. The
CAMELS, since it doesn't govern the banking sector, becomes irrelevant to the other part of the
legislation. The other three acts strive to protect customers, and make the financial sector stable.
