“Calling it the ‘Volcker rule,’ after former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker who flanked the president as he spoke, Obama said that banks will no longer be allowed to own, invest in or sponsor hedge funds and private equity firms for their own benefit. Volcker is chairman of the president’s Economic Recovery Advisory Board and is widely respected on Wall Street.” Link
