Bank Regulation In 2025 And Beyond, Federal Reserve Governor Michelle W. Bowman, At The Kansas Bankers Association Government Relations Conference, Topeka, Kansas
Date 05/02/2025
Thank you for the invitation to speak to you today. It is a pleasure to be with you. I always enjoy the opportunity to meet bankers from across the country to learn about the issues that are important to you. Recently, I have observed a shift in tone when I talk to bankers about the bank regulatory environment. Bankers are cautiously optimistic that we will see meaningful reform that right-sizes regulation and supervisory approach, reforms that—if executed appropriately—should help the banking system promote economic growth in a safe and sound manner. Today, I will share my views on a number of issues related to banking regulation and supervision, including the importance of tailoring, having a problem-focused approach to bank regulation and supervision, and the imperative of innovation in the banking system.
