Reframing Financial Regulation: Enhancing Stability and Protecting Consumers - Podcast

Reframing Financial Regulation: Enhancing Stability and Protecting Consumers, edited by Hester Peirce and Benjamin Klutsey, brings together a diverse set of authors to provide alternative ways to regulate different aspects of the financial system. The chapters embody approaches that rely less on centralized, top-down regulations and more on market discipline and oversight. The recently published book, which reflects a wide variety of viewpoints and approaches, seeks to initiate a lively conversation about how a thoughtfully regulated, market-based financial system can facilitate risk sharing, efficiently provide access to capital, and enable households to save for the future. Senior Research Fellow and the Director of the Financial Markets Working Group at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, Hester Peirce, joined us to discuss this new book.
