Money Market Reforms: Have We Done Enough Already?

Following the financial crisis, regulators embarked on a two-step process of reforming the regulation of MMFs, despite an already comprehensive regulatory framework system of oversight. In 2010, the SEC approved new regulations intended to address credit quality, liquidity, maturity, and transparency concerns. Since that time, the SEC, legislators, the Fed, and market participants have vigorously debated further regulatory measures aimed at reducing the risk of a run on MMFs and providing a cushion against losses.  Are these further reforms necessary? Or have we done enough already?
