Exchange-traded risk products thrive
Article Abstract:
Many corporate managers use either exchange-traded contracts or over the counter (OTC) futures in risk management depending on the needs of the company. For long term, complex hedging of multiple risks exposures OTC products are used while in short term risk management requiring quick implementation of actively traded products exchange-traded contracts are used. OTC products can accommodate transactions of different sizes and are used in global exposures, but are not SEC or CFTC regulated like exchange traded issues.

Glass-Steagall is moth food
Article Abstract:
Regulatory supervision of banks should replace the Glass-Steagall law in protecting banking stability. Eliminating the Glass-Steagall law, which prevents banks from providing a number of financial services across the US, would enable banks to fully participate in capital and other markets without the need for exemptions. The current healthy state of the banking industry has rendered the Glass-Steagall law unnecessary.
