They speak with Robert him, a founding partner 10 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 1: at Myers and him tell us what what the significance 11 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: is of what the President did with regard to the 12 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: broader Dot Frank Act. Well, the President's intention here is 13 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: a continuation of his desire to roll back on necessary regulations. 14 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: The Dodd Frank Act just itself as over twenty two 15 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: pages of regulations, and President Trump is concerned that the 16 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 1: increased costs and the increased procedures that financial institutions were 17 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: required to follow, uh just diverted so much money into 18 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: compliance and legal that it essentially created a credit crunch, 19 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 1: especially for smaller businesses. And it's been hard for businesses 20 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: to borrow money and to expand their operations and hire 21 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 1: new employees. So President Trump is helpful with the reform 22 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 1: of dot Frank that this will allow small businesses to 23 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: start hiring and to have better access to credit. Well, 24 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: what specifically about Dodd Frank can he address and you know, 25 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: together with Congress to try to make things easier on 26 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: small business. Well, there's a number of things that he 27 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: can do. UM. One of the things is reforming some 28 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: of the agencies and new rules that were created and 29 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: put into place UM to address the compliance concerns. The 30 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: Consumer Financial Protection Board also as in President Trump's crosshairs, 31 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: was a new agency that was created under the Dodd 32 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: Frank Act. One chord in Washington is actually already held 33 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: it to be unconstituted l UM, but that was a 34 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: new agency that was created that also generated new regulations 35 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: that financial institutions had to comply with. And I think 36 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: President Trump which is very concerned with the growth and 37 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: amount of new regulations coming out, particularly on smaller financial institutions. 38 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 1: As Robert him, a founding partner at Myers and him 39 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: speaking with the Bloomberg LA host Gregg Store and Michael Best, 40 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: you can listen to Bloomberg Law weekdays at one pm 41 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: Wall Street Time here on Bloomberg Radio.
