The US has a really bad banking system.

When you don’t have controls and expect banks to do the right thing, then profit causes failures

US banking system sound but not all deposits guaranteed, Yellen says

Ok, serious question if anyone works in US banking. Why is it not possible to generate someone’s banking and investment tax forms on Jan 1st every year?

Why wait until mid-February for most of them?

Banks have no problem spitting out monthly statements within a day or two at the most. But it takes a month and a half for year-end tax forms?

I have got to be missing something big and obvious, right?
