bank reform
Lending regulation changes
Bank reform refers to changes in laws, regulations, or practices governing financial institutions, typically aimed at preventing failures, protecting depositors, or curbing risky behavior.
Reform efforts often follow financial crises: The 2008 collapse sparked calls for sweeping bank reform.
Measures may include capital requirements, lending restrictions, or breaking up institutions deemed too big to fail.
