I’m loathe to bring up 2016 presidential politics, but an article on Politico.com the other day about one possible candidate three years hence does raise a point compliance and regulatory officers might want to consider.
The article speculates about the possible candidacy of Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. Warren herself has said repeatedly that she has no interest in the presidency and will not run, and I take her word on that. If she did run, however, Warren would presumably challenge Hillary Clinton—or any other more serious Democratic contender, for that matter—by running from the left wing of the party. Central to that campaign would be Warren’s call for strong, no-nonsense regulation of the financial sector.
