In my March 2017 column, various executive orders emanating from the Trump White House starting shortly after inauguration that began the president’s deregulation initiative were discussed.1 Executive Order 13772 sets out administration policy to regulate the U.S. financial system consistent with seven “core principles,” and tasked the Secretary of the Treasury to report to the President on the extent to which current U.S. financial regulatory requirements promote and support the core principles or are inconsistent with them.2 On June 12, 2017, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin issued his report.3
