Book excerpt: Submitted Assignment from the year 2015 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: 65.00, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London (CEFIMS), course: Financial Law, language: English, abstract: Before the 2008-2009 global financial crisis, law was a necessary tool for financial markets. English financial law represents “the entire body of legal rules that govern and regulate financial markets, financial assets and financial transactions under the law of England and Wales”. It is classified as “a sub-species of English commercial law, which is heavily influenced by English common law”. According to Ellinger et al., « in order to safeguard the stability of the banking system, a degree of regulation and supervision needs to be imposed on banks themselves ». In this context, the United Kingdom passed the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, which authorized the Financial Services Authorities to become « a super-regulator , having responsibility for the regulation and supervision of the whole financial services sector ». However, this regulatory system was not suited for adressing the difficulties the banks were going into during the global financial crisis of 2008-2009. After the crisis, law and regulation's role shifted to provide more protection for financial stability and for the prevention of any misconducts. The Banking Act 2009 was going to fill the gap in « dealing with pre-insolvency 'stabilization' and with banking insolvency and administration ». And a year later, the Financial Services Act 2010 was given the role of « strengthening the powers of the FSA and giving it a 'financial stability' objective. In this paper, we are going to critically discuss the different views on the role of law and finance before and after the financial crises areas.

Part 4 discusses how markets and market participants operate and are regulated. It examines the nature of financial markets, their regulation and the legal rules that promote 'clean' markets. There is also discussion of the role and regulation of the different types of participants who deal in the markets.

Book excerpt: Financial crises have become an all too common occurrence over the past twenty years, largely as a result of changes in finance brought about by increasing internationalization and integration. As domestic financial systems and economies have become more interlinked, weaknesses can significantly impact not only individual economies but also markets, financial intermediaries, and economies around the world. This volume addresses the twin objectives of financial development in the context of financial stability and the role of law in supporting both. Financial stability (frequently seen as the avoidance of financial crisis) has become an objective of both the international financial architecture and individual economies and central banks. At the same time, financial development is now seen to play an important role in economic growth. In both financial stability and financial development, law and related institutions have a central role.

Book excerpt: ""The richness, clarity and nuances of the structure and methodology followed by the contributors make the book a very valuable tool for students... seeking to obtain a general understanding of the market and how it is regulated." - Ligia Catherine Arias Barrera, Banking & Finance Law Review The fully updated edition of this user-friendly textbook continues to systematise the European law governing capital markets and examines the underlying concepts from a broadly interdisciplinary perspective. The 3rd edition deals with 3 central developments: the project of the capital markets union; sustainable finance; and the further digitalisation of financial instruments and securities markets. The 1st chapter deals with the foundations of capital markets law in Europe, the 2nd explains the basics, and the 3rd examines the regime on market abuse. Chapter 4 explores the disclosure system and chapter 5 short-selling and high-frequency trading. The role of intermediaries, such as financial analysts, rating agencies, and proxy advisers, is described in chapter 6. Chapter 7 explains compliance and corporate governance in investment firms and chapter 8 illustrates the regulation of benchmarks. Finally, chapter 9 deals with public takeovers. Throughout the book emphasis is placed on legal practice, and frequent reference is made to the key decisions of supervisory authorities and courts. This is essential reading for students involved in the study of capital markets law and financial law."--
