President Barack Obama announces a financial reform proposal that would place restrictions on the size and scope of banks and other financial institutions. The proposal would, among other things, prevent firms that own banks from sponsoring, owning or investing in hedge funds, private equity firms or engaging in proprietary trading operations for their own profit and that are unrelated to serving their customers and place broader limits on the market share of liabilities at the largest financial firms.
