Operation Caymans: How the 1% Hides their Money

It was one of those eureka! Moments as an action organizer when form fits function, action and meaning unite to create an irresistible meme that echoes across our collective psyche. Let’s invade the Cayman Islands! Each tax day, activists on each side of our phony political divide find themselves shoulder to shoulder at local post offices.

The SEC was created by Section 4 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (now codified as 15 U.S.C. § 78d and commonly referred to as the Exchange Act or the 1934 Act). Overview[edit] Volcker Rule. The Volcker Rule refers to § 619[1] (12 U.S.C. § 1851) of the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, originally proposed by American economist and former United States Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker to restrict United States banks from making certain kinds of speculative investments that do not benefit their customers.[2] Volcker argued that such speculative activity played a key role in the financial crisis of 2007–2010.

Volcker Rule

The rule is often referred to as a ban on proprietary trading by commercial banks, whereby deposits are used to trade on the bank's own accounts, although a number of exceptions to this ban were included in the Dodd-Frank law.[3][4] The rule's provisions were scheduled to be implemented as a part of Dodd-Frank on July 21, 2012,[5] with preceding ramifications,[6] but were delayed. Background[edit] Volcker was appointed by President Barack Obama as the chair of the President's Economic Recovery Advisory Board on February 6, 2009. Occupy the SEC. @alexisgoldstein.
