Very informative post. In addition the Glass-Steagall Act was created by President Roosevelt and passed by Congress after the Great Depression in 1933. This act was created to regulate the bank to make them safer and more effective by separating the banks through commercial banking and investment banking. This was later changed in 1999 by President Clinton, which then allowed the two banks to intertwine. In regards to the SPE's in the fall of Enron, I agree that Enron used off balance sheet practices to deceive their investors financial statements. They tried to hide important information from their shareholders and left investors in the hole.
