Statement From New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo Concerning Executive Bonuses At Morgan Stanley

Date 08/12/2008

Morgan Stanley and Mr. Mack have taken a smart and prudent first step. American taxpayers have seen their investments crater while simultaneously having to fund the Wall Street bailout with billions of their tax dollars. This gesture by Morgan Stanley is appropriate, and I hope other firms like Merrill Lynch will take it to heart.

Charlie McCreevy, European Commissioner For Internal Market And Services - Speech At Annual AEJ Christmas Lunch - Association Of European Journalists (AEJ), Dublin, 8 December 2008

Date 08/12/2008

Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen: It seems no time since I spoke to you for the first time as European Commissioner at the Annual AEJ Christmas lunch in 2004. Today I am here – probably for the last time - in my current capacity. I say "probably" not because I want to see a headline saying "McCreevy hints at a second term" but simply because there is, I understand, some possibility that the life of this Commission will be extended by a month or two in which case it could

The lower 2008 cost guidance underpins Deutsche Börse’s expe
Speech By US Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Kohn On Restoring Financial Intermediation By Banks - The Role Of Regulators

Date 08/12/2008

I thought I might use these brief introductory remarks to put some of our challenges as regulators in the broad context of the tremendous shifts in the pattern of financial flows that we are witnessing. Traditionally, funds have been channeled from savers to borrowers in two ways: through financial markets and through financial intermediaries, such as banks and savings institutions.
