Dodd-Frank Law

The Federal Reserve has issued a new report addressing regulators. The report was required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act focuses on the potential impact of credit risk retention requirements on securitization markets. 

"Consistent with the flexibility provided in the statute, the board recommends that rulemakers consider crafting credit risk-retention requirements that are tailored to each major class of securitized assets," the report said.
