CHOICE Review

This book is a follow-up to an earlier work, Restoring Financial Stability: How to Repair a Failed System, edited by Acharya and Matthew Richardson (2009), and authored by many of the same contributors to this new volume. Regulating Wall Street provides an exhaustive review of the Dodd-Frank Act. The 18 chapters, contained within five parts—"Financial Architecture," "Systemic Risk," "Shadow Banking," "Credit Markets," and "Corporate Control"--summarize the key features of the act and provide commentary on their efficacy. Where the measures are lacking, the contributors provide alternative proposals. The editors have taken care to ensure little overlap among the chapters. The prologue provides a summary of the overall assessment of the bill: an improvement over what existed before but still not enough. Given that many of the details of the regulations will not be known until regulators write them, this work may be premature. Nevertheless, it provides a valuable overview of the context and legislation, with equally valuable commentary and suggestions for improvement. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduate students through researchers, as well as general readers. B. B. Andrew Juniata College
