TL;DR Summary

Senator Elizabeth Warren has called for an independent investigation into US bank failures and criticised Federal Reserve finance officials, including Chairman Jerome Powell, for their oversight and supervision of banks. Warren has also sent a letter to the inspectors general of the US treasury department, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp (FDIC) and the Federal Reserve, urging regulators to examine the recent management and oversight of the banks which collapsed earlier this month. She has also unveiled legislation that would repeal Trump-era deregulation of smaller US banks and raise “stress-tests” on “too big to fail” banks from $50bn to $250bn.
