Capitol Hill Briefing on Legal Impediments to Innovation
AIR and the Omidyar Network asked the Buckley law firm to prepare a pro bono analysis of federal laws and protocols that may impede technology innovation by U.S. financial regulators. The Buckley study, entitled Innovation by Financial Regulators: Administrative and Regulatory Hurdles to Innovation, is based on off-the-record interviews with a range of agency officials regarding obstacles to such efforts. We held a one-hour briefing on the report on Capitol Hill.
