Banking industry likely to see regulatory relief under Trump

(The Hill) -- TheHill.com reports that "the banking industry is poised to benefit from Republicans lawmakers having a newly elected president from their side of the aisle to sign financial regulatory relief bills into law." The story quotes one expert who said: "The election could upend much of the Dodd-Frank Act and much of the financial regulatory structure." The Financial Choice Act by Rep.

"Community and regional banks have the best odds of getting regulatory relief under Trump," according to The Hill.
