Esta separaci\u00f3n entre los bancos comerciales que aceptan dep\u00f3sitos y las llamadas transacciones por cuenta propia hab\u00eda estado vigente desde la Gran Depresi\u00f3n en virtud de la Ley Glass-Steagall de 1933. Sin embargo, la desregulaci\u00f3n en las \u00faltimas d\u00e9cadas debilit\u00f3 esa separaci\u00f3n tradicional y la ley fue derogada en 1999.<\/p>\n<p>La separaci\u00f3n parcial de esas actividades ha sido el objetivo principal de algunos economistas y defensores de los consumidores que dicen que la capacidad de los bancos y las instituciones financieras para moverse libremente y realizar toda una variedad de transacciones ayud\u00f3 a causar el colapso econ\u00f3mico.<\/p>\n<p>Los esfuerzos para restaurar al menos una separaci\u00f3n parcial entre los bancos comerciales y la especulaci\u00f3n de Wall Street se conocen como la Regla Volcker. El expresidente de la Reserva Federal, Paul Volcker, asesor de la administraci\u00f3n Obama, defendi\u00f3 el concepto frente a las reservas del secretario del Tesoro, Timothy Geithner.<\/p>\n<p>Sin embargo, a la medida se opusieron los grandes bancos e instituciones financieras, as\u00ed como el Departamento del Tesoro. Al final, el enfoque de Merkley\/Levin se diluy\u00f3 para permitir que las instituciones financieras realicen transacciones &quot;de miniums&quot; m\u00e1s peque\u00f1as que les permiten un acceso continuo a esos mercados, y potencialmente grandes ganancias, al mismo tiempo que te\u00f3ricamente limitan el riesgo.<\/p>\n<p>Bajo el compromiso forjado por el comit\u00e9 de la conferencia, los bancos comerciales que aceptan dep\u00f3sitos a\u00fan podr\u00edan invertir en fondos de cobertura y fondos de capital privado, pero su participaci\u00f3n en estos fondos de alto riesgo ser\u00eda limitada. Los bancos no pod\u00edan poseer m\u00e1s del 3 por ciento de dichos fondos, y la inversi\u00f3n no pod\u00eda exceder el 3 por ciento del capital del banco. Los cambios calmaron a la industria financiera.<\/p>\n<p>Vikram Pandit, director ejecutivo del gigante financiero Citigroup, dijo que espera que la medida \u201cbrinde direcci\u00f3n y estabilidad para el sistema financiero en el futuro\u201d. Algunos analistas dijeron que los inversionistas se sintieron aliviados al saber que las nuevas reglas no terminaron siendo a\u00fan m\u00e1s duras.<\/p>\n<p>A Merkley le preocupa que la exenci\u00f3n sea &quot;un vac\u00edo legal demasiado grande&quot;, pero admiti\u00f3 que agregar el cambio fue el precio de incluir otros elementos en el compromiso final.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLa inclusi\u00f3n de una prohibici\u00f3n del comercio por cuenta propia es una victoria\u201d, dijeron Merkley y Levin en un comunicado conjunto. \u201cSi se implementa de manera efectiva, reducir\u00e1 significativamente el riesgo sist\u00e9mico para nuestro sistema financiero y proteger\u00e1 a los contribuyentes y empresas estadounidenses de las apuestas arriesgadas de Wall Street. Este es un importante paso adelante del sistema actual que ha impuesto pocos l\u00edmites al comercio especulativo por parte de los bancos u otras empresas financieras. Ahora se prohibir\u00e1 a los bancos realizar estas operaciones y otros gigantes financieros tendr\u00e1n que apartar el capital para respaldar sus apuestas.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"javascript:openWin('http:\/\/www.oregonlive.com\/politics\/index.ssf\/2010\/06\/financial_reform_bill_gives_co.html');\"><strong>Leer m\u00e1s -&gt;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The financial reform agreement reached as dawn broke Friday includes a provision written by Sen.
