The Glass–Steagall Act
Manage episode 426092778 series 3565466
This episode explores the historical importance of the Glass-Steagall Act, which separated commercial and investment banking to restore stability after the Great Depression. The gradual deregulation that followed culminated in the 1999 Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, eventually leading to the 2007-2008 financial crisis and prompting discussions on balancing innovation with stability in the financial sector.
