New Watchdog for Financial Regulators and Limits on Reputational Risk Penalties.

This bill establishes a Special Inspector General to investigate claims of abuse, misconduct, and ideological bias within major US financial regulatory bodies like the SEC and the Federal Reserve. The goal is to ensure fair and objective application of financial rules. Crucially, it prohibits these agencies from taking enforcement actions against financial institutions based solely on "reputational risk" concerns.
