Government Proposes Financial System Fix-up

Filed under: Real Estate News - 02 Apr 2008, by Sandra Tuell

On Monday, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson presented his blueprint to overhaul the way the U.S. regulates its financial system.   If implemented, the plan would significantly alter the way banks, brokerages and insurance companies conduct their business.  Some of the suggested changes would establish consistent licensing standards for mortgage lenders.  Another proposal, strongly opposed by the banking industry, may eliminate thrifts that once funded a major share of mortgage loans for new home buyers.
