As part of the post-crisis Dodd-Frank regulation, the Volcker rule restricts banks from applying proprietary models to trade for their own profits or placing high equity stakes in hedge funds, mutual funds, and private equity funds.
Under the new proposal, banks with key market-trading assets and liabilities of $1 billion to $10 billion would be subject to less stringent Volcker requirements with bespoke specifications. Below the $1 billion asset threshold, financial institutions would not have to demonstrate compliance with the new Volcker rule.
In terms of public disclosure, trading desks would not have to report absolute daily net gains and losses below $25 million within a 90-day window. This deregulatory rollback provides fresh momentum for most bank stocks. As a consequence, most banks experience hefty stock price appreciation in recent times.
