  4. Congress Blocks Financial Derivative Regulation
  5. The SEC’s Voluntary Regulation Regime for Investment Banks
  6. Bank Self-Regulation Goes Global: Preparing to Repeat the Meltdown?
  7. Failure to Prevent Predatory Lending
  8. Federal Preemption of State Consumer Protection Law (2003)
  9. Escaping Accountability: Assignee Liability
  10. Fannie and Freddie Enter the Subprime Market
