The National Law Review is a free resource of articles addressing legal issues related to the financial services industry. Our database includes topics on financial regulatory, compliance, debt finance, broker-dealer, insolvency and restructuring, investment management and structured transactions. We also address hot topics in financial services law such as financial technology ("FinTech"), digital currency and Bitcoins, and blockchain technology. Analysis includes compliance under finance laws including the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the Federal Reserve Act, Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, Equal Credit Opportunity Act and more. Details of actions by governmental agencies and regulatory organizations such as the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CTFC"), Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB"), and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") are added regularly. The National Law Review also covers news on financial services law from around the world, such as UK Regulatory framework, Australian crowd sourced funding regime, the European Union's Markets in Financial Instruments Directive ("MiFID"), international insolvency, and other issues relating to non-U.S. foreign banks and institutions.
