Texas is leading the nation in nuclear verdicts. The largest in recent years? A staggering $7 billion—and 20 others from 2016-2022 that top $100 million. These lawsuits are reshaping our legal landscape, and TLR is working to address the issue this session.

Regulators need to stop falsely claiming that there's not enough transparency in private business loans. Private funds are already heavily regulated and have to disclose a variety of information. https://t.co/W76FwybHoJ

[ATR @taxreformer]

The argument for more transparency in private credit funds is baseless. Private funds are already subject to strict regulations and have to publicly disclose information. It's time for regulators to stop pushing for unnecessary rules. https://t.co/W76FwybHoJ

Neel Kashkari, President of the Federal Bank of Minneapolis, believes that the rise of private credit may actually reduce systemic risk in the U.S. financial system. Read more here⬇️ https://t.co/scPwKZNtup

[Pinpoint Policy Institute @Pinpoint_Policy]

The hypocrisy is rich when you have a group led by @Ewarren’s allies attacking private equity, while at the same time they are relying on private equity funds to boost their bottom line.

Pinpoint’s @GordonGrayDC: “The fact that PESP’s major foundation donors are all heavily invested in private equity exposes how incoherent and foolish their constant attacks on this industry truly are.”

Check out my latest in The Hill!

Americans must be reminded of the countless countries, lives, and economies that have been ruined by price-fixing over the millennia. These ideas are neither new nor “joyous.” They are old and deadly.

Private markets are rife with strong returns and security. The real risk to stability in U.S. financial regulation is the deference U.S. regulators, such as those that make up the FSOC, give to international organizations.

I interviewed Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen about financial stability, a key theme of her legacy.

One risk she’s watching: whether we’ll have a peaceful transition of power after the 2024 election.

Fantastic analysis from @taxreformer @BryanBashur

The people grant the government authority. The government is not supposed to grant it to itself:

"By granting itself the authority to adjust interchange fees without public oversight, the Fed is effectively positioned to control fees charged on debit cards issued in the U.S. Such price controls are antithetical to the principles of a free-market economy and raise serious concerns about the potential for market distortion. The resulting uncertainty could have far-reaching consequences, not only for large financial institutions but also for small businesses, community banks, and consumers who rely on these services."

[Bryan Bashur @BryanBashur]

“Scrutinizing private credit will inevitably hamper capital allocation to midsized American companies and individuals who rely on credit cards and other consumer financial products. Private credit has a role to play in the U.S. economy.”

“The underlying assets are primarily senior secured floating rate middle market loans. In the event of a default, investors in these loans would be first in line to get their money back. The floating rate nature of these loans is also advantageous for borrowers.”
