#In law, a legal person acting on their own behalf.  
#The amount of an investment or a loan, excluding any interest. When the whole of a loan is drawn down at the start, the principal is simply the amount originally borrowed.

1. To identify risks to the financial stability of the United States that could arise from the financial distress or failure, or ongoing activities, of large, interconnected bank holding companies or non-bank financial companies, or that could arise outside the financial services marketplace.  
The concepts of 'principal' above, should not be confused with ''principle'', which is different.


2. To promote market discipline, by eliminating expectations on the part of shareholders, creditors, and counterparties of such companies that the US government will shield them from losses in the event of failure.
3. To respond to emerging threats to the stability of the US financial system.
