Lawmakers in Washington came closer to compromise on a new bill that would more tightly regulate the financial industry Sunday after extensive talks.
The talks come shortly before a Monday procedure vote to see if the bill can move forward, the New York Times said.
Several sticking points still exist including a future fund for bailouts and how creditors are treated when a company faces restructuring, Politico said.
Even with debating, a bipartisan bill is expected, thanks to broad public disapproval of the financial industry, said the New York Times.
"We don't have a bipartisan compromise yet, but I think there's a good chance we're going to get it," Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said.
