Financial Stability: Hope or Promise?

Following the financial crisis of 2007-09, legislatures and regulators around the world took steps to strengthen their banking systems. Domestically, Congress passed the Dodd-Frank Act. Internationally, the Financial Stability Board and the Basel Committee established many new prudential standards. Much has been done.
