Banking law is the broad term for laws that govern how banks and other financial institutions conduct business. Banks must comply with a myriad of federal, state and even local regulations. We perform a wide variety of functions that relate to creating, following and enforcing regulations.

Multiple federal agencies oversee banking regulations. A bank or other financial institution might fall under regulations of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Federal Reserve System or the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). Banks must know what federal and state regulations they must comply with. Many federal banking regulations are found in chapter 12 of the U.S. Code.
