The U.S. bank and securities regulators’ jurisdiction and mission has expanded under Dodd-Frank reforms. A non-U.S. financial institution's ability to anticipate and manage the extra-territorial impact of the onslaught of new regulation is critical to its business success.
Please join our panel of senior practitioners for an interactive discussion that will highlight how non-U.S. bankers and in-house counsel can better tailor their operations and products to specific Dodd-Frank reforms.
Topics Will Include:
- Consequences of SIFI designation and regulation for non-U.S. banks;
- Impact of the “Volcker Rule” for non-U.S. banks’ proprietary trading and private equity fund/hedge fund activities;
- Impact on non-U.S. banks of the amendments to the Investment Advisers Act of 1940;
- Implications of the “Lincoln Amendment” for the swaps activities of non-U.S. banks;
- U.S. registration requirements for non-U.S. banks swap dealers and major swap participants;
- Effects of Dodd-Frank credit rating agency reforms for non-U.S. bank products such as fixed-income securities offerings;
- Non-U.S. banks issuing ABCP in the new regulatory environment;
- Impact of Dodd-Frank on securitisation by non-U.S. banks;
- Competitive impact considerations; and
- Developing an operational response to the new regulatory environment.
