Corporate Governance · Administrative Law Research · Financial Regulatory Analysis
Stephen McCarthy researches corporate governance, administrative law, financial regulatory oversight, and compliance risk.
Research focus
- Administrative procedure: statutory authority, agency jurisdiction, and the judicial review of federal administrative bodies.

- Financial regulatory oversight: the CFPB, FHFA, and SEC; financial agency governance; and compliance risk analysis.
- Separation of powers: constitutional executive authority and the institutional design of independent agencies.
Research toolkit
Three starter projects connect primary-source legal research with practical documentation. Each repository includes its own MIT License and instructions.
| Repository | Available materials |
|---|---|
| Administrative law analytics | A Python validator and comparison report, seven selected case records, official-source links and pinpoints, a sample report, and functional tests. |
| Corporate compliance templates | An editable policy template, board responsibility matrix, risk register, evidence checklist, and review log. |
| Financial regulatory tracker | A Python validator and review report, five selected developments, source references, workflow fields, a sample report, and functional tests. |
Legal analytics
Compare agency structure, statutory interpretation, funding, and adjudication through a dated research dataset. The tool validates record structure and generates a source-linked Markdown comparison.
Compliance templates
Adapt illustrative documents to define scope, responsible roles, supporting records, review intervals, and documented follow-up. The templates contain sample allocations and blank organizational assessments.
Regulatory tracking
Organize developments by date, institution, procedural status, primary source, and review question. The local tracker shows missing owners, missing review dates, due reviews, and sources requiring refresh.
