Abstract

The Volcker Rule prohibits banking entities from engaging in proprietary trading activities and limits their ability to invest in, or have certain relationships, with hedge funds and private equity funds. Certain activities are exempted from these prohibitions subject to prudential backstop provisions. The rule's purpose is to prohibit activities that could create excessive risks for banking entities and conflicts of interest.
