Incentivizing Safe and Sound Banking Act

YourVoice.Now Summary

Bars top executives at large banks (over $50 billion in assets) from selling their stock compensation while the bank has an unresolved safety problem.

The details

When a big bank (over $50 billion in assets) gets a poor safety rating from regulators or fails to fix a serious supervisory concern on time, its top executives would be automatically banned from selling any company stock they received as compensation until the problem is resolved. Regulators could also impose stock-sale bans as part of cease-and-desist orders against any bank. The bill is designed to make sure bank executives can't cash out while their institution is in trouble, aligning their financial incentives with actually fixing the problems.

Leave your email and we'll tell you the moment the app is ready.

By default, we'll only email you once — when the app launches. Unless you opt in below, you won't receive anything else. We don't share or sell your email.
