Following the proposals made by Barack Obama in order to limit both the size of banks and their risk-taking, the banking and financial markets have reacted badly. In exchange, the bank shares continued to tumble yesterday began to regard the U.S. markets. Do not panic however, as the project of U.S. President does not imply that the industry feared most: a dismantling of the largest U.S. banks. However, fear of an escalation, particularly during the passage of these proposals to Congress was clear Friday.

Eager to appear aggressive towards large banks unpopular elected officials of both parties could, for example, insist on a return to the previous rules in 1999, prohibiting commercial banks from entering the market trades.This would lead to force a breakdown of major banking groups like Bank of America-Merrill Lynch, Citigroup and JPMorgan Chase.

This is not the will of the White House. But Republican John McCain and his Democratic colleague Maria Cantwell nevertheless, for several days, submitted a proposal to that effect. "It seems that many proposals of President Obama going in the right direction," said former Republican candidate for the presidency. "Let's try to solve problems", commented the other hand his Republican colleague from Arizona, Jon Kyl."Do not seek a scapegoat that diverts attention from the mistakes of this administration," stated the curator.

New Principles

The Democratic chairman of the Committee on Financial Services of the House of Representatives, Barney Frank is aware of the danger of an escalation develop paydayloans . While he endorses the new principles set by Barack Obama, seven months after the introduction of the reform project finance. But he said he is not totally prohibit the "own-account trading 'of the banks.

While banks such as JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs would be proposed by the White House forced to get rid of some of their activities in the capital and to abandon some of their own trading account.But Barney Frank said, "it would be wrong to demand that banks are withdrawing quickly from all hedge funds and private equity funds involved." The influential Democrat feared the consequences of massive sales made in an emergency.

Tim Geithner, Treasury Secretary, has lost influence in the White House in this case. He was dismissed in June, the approach taken today by Barack Obama to reform Wall Street. He feared that it unnecessarily complicates the debate. Before a group of bankers, closed Thursday night, he confirmed his reservations. Geithner seems to feel that the activities listed are not those who most leaden banks.

The immediate fate of the reform is in the Senate. Other more fundamental questions remain to be resolved.Within both parties, Senators remain divided, for example, on the same principle to let the Fed any role in banking regulation.

Sixteen votes to six abstentions and one vote against. Ben Bernanke looks set to retain the reins of the U.S. central bank for a second term after voting to approve the Banking Committee U.S. Senate on Thursday. However, to formally renew its functions during the next four years, this decision must still be validated by the full Senate. However, this is quite good for Ben Bernanke, already distinguished yesterday by Time magazine as "Person of the Year" because of its good management of the crisis.

The measures taken by the Fed chief has also been welcomed by the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee. Christopher Dodd has said that "can be attributed to Mr. Bernanke some credit for its crucial role in the events of last fall.Had he not, with others, including some on the committee acted at a critical time for our country, we would have a very different and far more catastrophic. "

In this concert of praise, some voices are discordant. Republican Senator Jim Bunning, who did not hide his disapproval of the continuation of Ben Bernanke, has mocked the distinction of Time, stating it had been previously awarded to Joseph Stalin, Yasser Arafat or even Adolf Hitler. " "I hope that Ben Bernanke will run better than they" wished Jim Burning. The independent senator from left, Bernie Sanders, not a member of the Banking Committee, has even questioned the president Barack Obama asking him to reconsider his decision last August to extend Ben Bernanke to head Fed.Despite these protests, Ben Bernanke should be renewed without a hitch.
