Season 9, Episode 06

This week on the “Know More. Risk Better.” podcast, host Zach Griffiths welcomes Peter Simon, Co-Head of U.S. Financials, and Rick Gambs, Head of U.S. Prudential Regulatory Policy at Citi, for a deep dive into the evolving landscape of U.S. bank regulation. Zach, Peter, and Rick unpack the latest developments from the Fed’s integrated review of the capital framework, debate whether recent moves signal true deregulation or a recalibration of stringent standards, and discuss the real-world impact of leverage ratio reforms. The trio explores how regulatory tweaks may affect banks’ ability to intermediate in the Treasury market, the shifting role of non-bank financials and private credit, and what stablecoin legislation could mean for large institutions. With fresh insights from inside the regulatory trenches, they share practical takeaways for investors and industry watchers navigating a complex, fast-changing environment.
