    Hey everyone, Today we're talking with Nicole Gelinas, the Searle Freedom Trust Fellow at the Manhattan Institute and a contributing editor of City Journal, on Wall Street reform and the Dodd-Frank Bill. In addition to the headline regulatory changes covering capital investment by banks and insurance companies, the Act introduces new regulation of hedge funds and private equity funds, alters the definition of accredited investors, requires reporting by all public companies on CEO to median employee pay ratios and other compensation data, enforces equitable access to credit for consumers, and provides incentives to promote banking among low- and medium-income residents. Nicole does a great job breaking it all down for us and telling us what it really means - give it a listen! Chris
