Concept Introduction:

The financial crisis of 2008 raised questions about the financial stability and regulations of the U.S. government. The Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson proposed a series of financial reforms post the crisis. He realized that the financial institutions and its functions were too widespread to be regulated by one regulator. So he refined and created a regulatory system for different roles supervised by its respective regulatory bodies.
