Leo Lion | Can you name the reason why banks are thriving today? |
Most banks don't seem to have the problems they had ten or fifteen years ago.
During the reign of Pres. Bush 41, there was a government agency known as the Resolution Trust Corporation that was engaged in assisting banks with problems like over-extened loans.
Today, we don't hear about that anymore, and banks keep chugging along, many prospering.
Just what caused this turn-around? |

Ten or fifteen years ago banks were in rotten shape due to the Savings and Loan crisis of the late 80s (problems with deregulation, mass-mergers, etc).
Since then, major financial regulation has taken place (see Federal Reserve Regulation DD, among others as well as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) to prevent a reoccurance.
Afterwards, banks reorganized, bought each other out, and stabilized. Nowadays, banks are profiting off of investments, and especially the mortgage boom that is just now closing.
Hope this helps! |

house values have gone up.
so even if someone defaulted on their mortgage, the bank could sell the house for much more than is owed.
this might not last |
