Wall Street post Lehman Brothers comes of age

The US financial sector has undergone significant changes since the 2008 crisis, triggered by the collapse of Lehman Brothers. Today, the sector has half the number of entities and twice the assets it had 18 years ago, with stricter regulations in place. The Dodd-Frank Act of 2010 aimed to prevent future crises and imposed higher capital requirements and stress tests on banks.
