Given 2008's global financial crisis, what can we expect in terms of new legislation and regulation in 2009?

Aite Group, the Boston-based financial services analyst firm, takes a stab at answering this question in a new report "What Next? Legislative and Regulatory Response to the Financial Crisis."

In an exclusive interview, Aite Analyst Eva Weber discusses:

Initial conclusions from the study;
Recommendations for financial institutions in 2009;
Key takeaways for banking/security leaders who need to be concerned with all threats to their institutions.

Weber focuses on the regulatory and compliance issues facing financial institutions. Recent research has focused on anti-money laundering, risk management, fraud, and bank regulation at the federal and state levels. She brings to the position research and analytical skills gained in five years as a practicing attorney, and has helped Aite Group clients respond to major regulatory initiatives, such as Sarbanes-Oxley, the Bank Secrecy Act, the USA PATRIOT Act and new bankruptcy laws.

Weber has presented before the BITS Fraud Steering Committee and at user conferences for Metavante and Postilion. She has been quoted in leading press outlets, such as Associated Press, USA Today, The Boston Globe, and The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on mortgage industry regulation, and more broadly in trade publications, such as American Banker and The Greensheet.
