Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industrial Loan Companies (ILCs) are state-chartered and state-regulated depository institutions. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) may insure them. Their owners include nonfinancial companies that cannot own ("hold" stock of) a bank under the Bank Holding Company Act (i.e., to be a bank or financial holding company). Their primary federal regulator is not the Federal Reserve, which regulates bank holding companies, but the FDIC. While prominent large ILCs include subsidiaries of securities firms, their owners also include automotive and retailing companies. The ILC form reflects a persistent tendency to combine the financing of a business with its operations, standard in many countries, especially Germany and Japan, but in disfavor in America. ILCs, therefore, have developed against a long U.S. two-way tradition of the separation of banking and commerce. (1) Ownership interests that nonfinancial firms may have in banks are generally 25% or less. (2) Banks may generally hold only nominal amounts of corporate stock. ILCs evoke two major policy concerns. First, should Congress grant ILCs powers that would allow them to be nationwide banks while in competition with community banks? Second, could the combination of state and FDIC regulation provide oversight comparable to that for nationwide banks, especially for bank holding companies? The interest shown by Wal-Mart in controlling an ILC with nationwide potential has heightened interest in these issues. The 108th Congress considered these issues in two bills that passed the House. H.R. 758 would have allowed ILCs to provide business checking accounts, while H.R. 1375 would have allowed ILCs to open branches nationwide. These measures could have transformed ILCs into a parallel banking system regulated primarily by a few states, growing into large institutions with commercial ownership. In 2005, Wal-Mart announced that it was again applying for an ILC charter. (DaimlerChrysler did likewise later in the year). In the 109th Congress, H.R. 1224, allowing business checking accounts, passed the House on May 24, 2005, in a way preventing ILCs owned by nonfinancial businesses from becoming more bank-like. H.R. 3882 independently seeks to make any company that controls an ILC become a financial holding company (as defined above.).The House Financial Services Committee voted out H.R. 3505, a regulatory relief measure, on November 16. This bill would restrict ILCs from opening branches on an interstate, national, basis. This report analyzes the controversy by: (1) providing a historical overview of the separation of banking and commerce; (2) examining the nature of ILCs and their regulation; and (3) identifying and analyzing the relevant legislation in Congress. This report will be updated as events warrant.

Book excerpt: In Chapter 5, William Shughart also considers the part that politics played in banking legislation during the 1930s, but he looks at the banking legislation passed in the United States. Shughart draws par ticular attention to the provisions in the Banking Act of 1933 that required the separation of commercial and investment banking activ ities. Applying a public choice analysis, Shughart asks who gained from the provisions, and he concludes that the commercial banking industry, the investment banking industry, and the U. S. Treasury Department can all be said to have benefited in the years immedi ately following the passage of the act. Richard Timberlake, in his comment, extends Shughart's analysis to show how the federal gov ernment manipulated the monetary policy of the 1930s for its own benefit. The history of the regulation of the savings and loan industry is the subject of Chapter 6. James Barth and Martin Regalia examine the way in which regulation of the industry has evolved since the first savings and loan was established in the 1830s. They conclude that the stated purpose of regulation appears to have changed, even while the regulations themselves often have not. Barth and Regalia provide some important insights into the contribution of thrift regu lation to the current problems facing the indusb-y as well as some suggestions about the direction reform should-and should not take.
