This report studies the role of leverage in the current financial crisis and federal oversight of leverage. The objectives were to review: (1) how leveraging and de-leveraging by financial institutions may have contributed to the crisis; (2) regulations adopted by federal financial regulators to limit leverage and how regulators oversee compliance with the regulations; and (3) any limitations the current crisis has revealed in regulatory approaches used to restrict leverage and regulatory proposals to address them. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.
