Ralph Walkling, Ph.D., executive director of LeBow College Center for Corporate Governance, was quoted in an article published in The Philadelphia Inquirer titled "This Economy: Financial Regulation a Tricky Process" which talked about the evolution of businesses to changing economic landscapes and their ability to stay ahead of changing regulations.
"Successful regulation would evolve with business, but that will not happen because the political process makes it impossible," said Walkling. "Regulation doesn't follow a Darwinian process. It is more like a pendulum that gets stuck, either on the side of too much regulation or too little regulation," he said.
