Needed reform gone bad

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK - The Oklahoma Bankers Association expressed deep regret about the passage of the Senate bill on financial reform yesterday.

“Anyone who's even remotely aware of some of the problems that led to the near-collapse of the nation's financial system has been supportive of the idea of meaningful financial reform,” said OBA President Roger Beverage. “Unfortunately, the bill that passed the Senate last night doesn't accomplish the goal. Rather, it contains provisions that will undermine the ability of traditional banks to provide credit and help create jobs in their communities.”
