Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The law lays down explicit and detailed rules that financial intermediaries must follow with regard to their clients. These duties are now quite diverse and are laid down not only in the CVM, but also in separate legislation. Directive 2014/65/EU of 15 May 2014, transposed in 2018, is the cornerstone of the legal framework for financial intermediation and has led to an unparalleled evolution in the legal duties to which financial intermediaries are bound in their relationship with their clients, giving the latter greater legal protection. This book aims to contribute to the systematisation of the financial intermediation regime in Portugal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The financial system is a densely interconnected network of financial intermediaries, facilitators, and markets that serves three major purposes: allocating capital, sharing risks, and facilitating intertemporal trade. Asset prices are an important mechanism in each of these phenomena. Capital allocation, whether through loans or other forms of investment, can vary both across sectors-at the broadest, manufactures, agriculture, and services-and within sectors, for example different firms. The risk that various investors are willing to take reflects their financial position and alternative opportunities. Risk and asset allocation are also influenced by whether money, and especially its expenditure, is more important now or in the future. These decisions are all influenced by governmental policies. When there are mismatches, the results include financial meltdowns, fiscal deficits, sovereign debt, default and debt crises. Harold L. Cole provides a broad overview of the financial system and assets pricing, covering history, institutional detail, and theory. The book begins with an overview of financial markets and their operation and then covers asset pricing for standard assets and derivatives, and analyzes what modern finance says about firm behavior and capital structure. It then examines theories of money, exchange rates, electronic payments methods, and cryptocurrencies. After exploring banks and other forms of financial intermediation, the book examines the role they played in the Great Recession. Having provided an overview of the provate sector, Cole switches to public finance and government borrowing as well as the incentives to monetize the public debt and its consequences. The book closes with an examination of sovereign debt crises and an analysis of their various forms. Finance and financial intermediation are central to modern economies. This book covers all of the material a sophisticated economist needs to know about this area.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception, the Modigliani-Miller capital structure irrelevancy principle has limited researchers' interest in the role of financial intermediaries in macroeconomics. However, due to the spread of financial crises in emerging markets in the 1980s and 1990s, and the global financial collapse of 2008, the focus of much academic work has turned to rigorously modeling these entities. Chapter one surveys the past and current literature on all types of financial intermediaries (market makers, traditional banks, and hedge funds, among others) and discusses their role in dissemination of asymmetric information, real business cycle fluctuations, and financial crashes and contagion. In chapter two, I build a two-frequency sequential trade model which generates sharp endogenous asset price movements caused by slow dissemination of asymmetric information about economic fundamentals. The key mechanism used in the model employs a Glosten-Migrom market maker who gradually infers the value of the fundamental by trading with both uninformed and imperfectly informed agents. Information becomes "trapped" as purchases by the uninformed agent mask informative sales; a sudden price correction occurs as soon as the market maker discovers the true value of the fundamental. I also study the factors that influence the duration of the information dissemination process. In chapter three, I build a two-country DSGE model with multiple assets, incomplete markets, and an endogenous optimizing banking sector, that is capable of recreating some of the important trends and linkages observed in the financial data. International financial markets during the past several decades have been characterized by a significant rise in gross international equity flows, increased prominence of non-traditional financial institutions, and globalization of the banking sector. In particular, I demonstrate that financial liberalization leads to an increase in a country's gross international asset holdings and to a positive net equity position. Finally, the model lays the groundwork for addressing many of the global banking regulation issues (for example, capital requirements and bankruptcy resolutions) that are now emerging in the field of international finance.

The financial crisis of 2007-09 highlighted the changing role of financial institutions and the growing importance of the ¿shadow banking system,¿ which grew out of the securitization of assets and the integration of banking with capital market developments. In a market-based financial system, banking and capital market developments are inseparable, and funding conditions are tied closely to fluctuations in the leverage of market-based financial intermediaries. This report describes the changing nature of financial intermediation in the market-based financial system, charts the course of the recent financial crisis, and outlines the policy responses that have been implemented by the Fed. Reserve and other central banks. Charts and tables.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two items were firmly on the European economic agenda in the 1990s: financial market integration and the creation of a common or single currency. The former was supposed to have been achieved in 1992 (via the Single Market Act, with some derogations), and the latter came into being on January 1, 1999. This study is concerned with a particular connection between the two themes, namely the process of financial intermediation and especially the role of banking. 1.1 Financial & Monetary Integration in Europe Up until the mid-1980s, European financial intermediation was, as else where 'on shore' in the post-war period, broadly characterised by a relatively high degree of diverse regulatory control and with cross-border restrictions (e.g., in the form of exchange controls). This resulted in the administration of interest rates and pegging of prime market yields, as well as restrictions on intermediary specialisation. Hence, it was easy to understand why price c ,etition was hardly ever seen. Within this kind of environment, banks and other financial intermediaries (OFIs) competed mainly on non-price terms - for example, through the expansion of branch networks. The Single Market Programme (SMP),l launched in 1986, was in a com plex way intended to level out and open up the domestic markets of the European Union (EU) to competition from entities in other Member States.
