I haven't researched who has the ultimate authority and in which areas....I have heard that the Fed does have some say on margin issues....I'm more interested in coming to a clear understanding of why things are the way they are, what factors may improve the situation, and what the hidden ramifications of any alteration might be....I am more concerned, frankly, with the extension of banking abilities and it's implications in a down market than I am about margin issues....but an understanding of all issues is important and this is the one du jour.
