News from The Hill: Wall Street’s warning shot to Ryan - By Peter Schroeder and Bernie Becker

The banking industry's vigorous pushback against Rep. Dave Camp's tax reform plan is a warning shot for his likely successor, Rep. Paul Ryan.

Like most industries, Wall Street isn’t worried that Camp’s (R-Mich.) plan could move through Congress in an election year. Plus, Camp is scheduled to be in his last year with the gavel of the powerful Ways and Means Committee.

But the financial industry fears that Camp’s proposal to tax the nation’s biggest banks could someday make a comeback when lawmakers seek revenue generators for legislation.

Read the story here.

Excellent business and economics writer Jamie Smith Hopkins reports 1st Mariner Bank to be sold to investors

1st Mariner Bank to be sold to investors - baltimoresun.com

Parent company filed for bankruptcy protection as part of the deal; the bank is not included in that filing

By Jamie Smith Hopkins, The Baltimore Sun 7:12 PM EST, February 10, 2014

The parent company of 1st Mariner Bank said Monday that it has signed a deal to sell the bank after years of regulatory demands that it increase its capital, potentially ending the company's long struggle to right itself after the mortgage crisis.

A group of investors, many with local ties, have agreed to buy the Baltimore bank — the largest based in the region — and recapitalize it with about $100 million.

First Mariner Bancorp, the parent company, said it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection Monday afternoon in Baltimore federal court to "facilitate the transaction."

[…]

"For four years, the bank has been under a regulatory order that it's been trying to satisfy, and we've reached the finish line," said Mark Keidel, interim president of 1st Mariner Bank. "This agreement … puts the bank on much firmer financial ground — and quite frankly gives us the ability to be back on offense."

New York Times: Authorities Plan to Arrest 2 Former JPMorgan Employees Javier Martin-Artajo and Julien Grout,

Authorities Plan to Arrest 2 Former JPMorgan Employees

Government authorities are planning to arrest two former JPMorgan Chase employees suspected of masking the size of a multibillion-dollar trading loss, a dramatic turn in a case that tarnished the reputation of the nation’s biggest bank and spotlighted the perils of Wall Street risk-taking.

The arrests are expected to take place in London as soon as next week, according to people briefed on the matter. The action, the people said, would come on the heels of a federal grand jury voting to indict the employees on criminal fraud charges.

The employees — Javier Martin-Artajo, a manager who oversaw the trading strategy from London, and Julien Grout, a low-level trader responsible for recording the value of the soured bets — could ultimately be extradited under an agreement with British authorities.

Gathering at the Royal Festival Hall in London, which is usually reserved for music performances, Robert E. Diamond Jr., the chief executive; Marcus Agius, the chairman; and the other members of Barclays’ board answered questions from disgruntled shareholders about why the bank paid million-dollar bonuses to its senior executives while earnings and the share price fell... http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/04/27/barclays-board-is-heckled-over-pay/?nl=business&emc=dlbkpma2_20120427

Yahoo Finance - Bank Transfer Day: A Protest With Your Money by Brian O'Connell

Bank Transfer Day: A Protest With Your Money

by Brian O'Connell Wednesday, October 12, 2011

http://finance.yahoo.com/banking-budgeting/article/113658/bank-transfer-day-mainstreet?mod=bb-budgeting

Occupy Wall Street has dominated headlines for the past few weeks, with advocates and critics jaw-boning over whether it was government or Wall Street that fueled the financial crisis (here's a vote for both).

[…]http://finance.yahoo.com/banking-budgeting/article/113658/bank-transfer-day-mainstreet?mod=bb-budgeting

On the movement's Facebook page, protest organizers say that, even with new government regulations in place to keep banks in check, they're still making out like bandits. For example:

With the Durbin Amendment in effect, banks will still make 19 cents profit per processed transaction.

The average consumer uses his or her debit card 24 times per month.

Without the additional fee, Bank of America stands to turn a $3.3 billion annual profit from its 59 million customers' debit card transactions.

Here's an explanation from the organizers of Bank Transfer Day, straight from the group's Facebook page

Bank Transfer Day Continues Facebook Runup

BY JIM RUBENSTEIN

Kristen Christian, the Los Angeles art dealer who thought up Bank Transfer Day and tied it to Guy Fawkes Day.

The Bank Transfer Day phenomenon popping up all over the media – mainstream and social – took some new turns Monday.

[...]

Credit unions in Ohio, South Carolina and Pennsylvania also have said they’re working to take advantage of the new wave of anti-bank sentiment.

[...]

As it turns out, Coasthills is one of two California CUs of choice for the now “credit union face” of Bank Transfer Day, Kristen Christian, the Los Angeles art dealer who created the original Facebook page about Bank Transfer Day a couple weeks ago and decided on Nov. 5 – Guy Fawkes Day in England – as the day.

Christian, who said she created the site out of her frustration at Bank of America’s new$5 monthly debit fee – reiterated Monday that she is not out for personal gain or notoriety but is a willing advocate for CUs “because of what they do and what they represent.”

Christian told Credit Union Times she has conducted “many interviews over the phone with radio station reporters from Texas and everywhere and now I have something on CNN with Don Lemon.”
