Puerto Rico Gov. Alejandro García-Padilla on Thursday submitted a bill to the legislature that proposes a sweeping overhaul of the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority, with the goal of “providing clean and reliable energy at the lowest possible cost.”
Legislation authored by Rep. Nydia M. Velázquez (D-NY) aims to significantly strengthen reporting requirements for hedge funds, large privately organized, pooled investment vehicles not available to the public whose primary investors are wealthy individuals or institutions.
Gov. Alejandro García-Padilla submitted late Thursday to the legislature the bill that will give way to the creation of a five-member fiscal oversight board that among other things, will be responsible for enforcing compliance with approved budgets.
