Financial regulation
Jacques-Olivier Charron
Abstrak
We construct a new measure of finance industry policy preferences from letters sent by finance trade associations to Congress. Using 1083 bills scheduled for consideration in Congress between 1998 and 2018, we show that the industry uses a multi-faceted approach to achieve outcomes that are in line with its stated policy preferences. When finance trade associations jointly lobby for a bill, Congress members who receive relatively more campaign contributions from the finance industry are more likely to cosponsor pro-finance regulation and to vote profinance. Our results suggest that following the money is insufficient for understanding the industry’s ability to affect regulation.
