Abstract/Description:

Law Reform and Financial Markets addresses how law reform can be used to support strong financial markets and draws on the global financial crisis as a case study.

This edited collection reflects recent developments, including the EU institutional reforms and the Dodd-Frank Act 2010. The different contributions adopt a range of theoretical, contextual and substantive perspectives, examine different domestic, regional and international contexts and assess public and private law frameworks in considering how legal and regulatory reforms can be most effectively designed for strong financial markets.

This comprehensive book will appeal to academics and postgraduates in the field of financial regulation and in cognate fields including finance and economics, as well as to regulators and policymakers.
