About Us

Pew's Financial Reform Project, which was formed in response to the ongoing financial crisis, brings a nonpartisan, fact-based approach to reforming and modernizing the financial sector.

The financial crisis resulted in unacceptable costs to families, businesses and taxpayers. Millions of Americans have lost their jobs, their homes and much of their savings.  Two years later, Americans are still waiting for Congress to act.  Our future depends upon a fair, competitive and stable financial sector.

Real financial reform must:

  • Create an early warning system that finds and deals with signs of trouble before they hurt American households;
  • End “Too Big To Fail” and bailouts that put taxpayers at risk;
  • Increase transparency in markets to protect the interests of American families and ensure that financial firms act responsibly; and
  • Protect consumers from harmful business practices.

Congress must act now to protect families, businesses, taxpayers, jobs and savings for all Americans.
