The long-awaited regulatory reform bill from Sen. Christopher Dodd finally landed with a ponderous thump on desks across Washington, Wall Street and America this afternoon. It clocks in at 1,336 pages, which gives it more physical heft than the reform bill passed by the House (1,289 pages) last December.
The bill will inevitably have more political heft, too, so compliance and governance executives should start giving it a read. (The faint-hearted can start with an 11-page summary the Senate Banking Committee has also posted. You wimps.)
