The Judiciary Committee of the US House of Representatives marked up and passed HR 1667, the Financial Institution Bankruptcy Act of 2017. The bill would amend Title II of the Dodd-Frank Act and would create a new subchapter V to chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, to establish a new bankruptcy process for certain financial institutions with assets of $50 billion or more. The legislation now goes to the US Senate for full consideration.

Read HR 1667.
