Download or read book Digitalisation Sustainability and the Banking and Capital Markets Union written by Lukas Böffel and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers three topics that have dominated financial market regulation and supervision debates: digital finance, sustainable finance, and the Banking and Capital Markets Union. Within the first part, seven chapters will tackle specific questions arising in digital finance, including but not limited to artificial intelligence, tokenisation, and international regulatory cooperation in digital financial services. The second part addresses one of humanity’s most pressing issues today: the climate crisis. The quest for sustainable finance is driven by political actors and a common understanding that climate change is a severe threat. As financial institutions are a cornerstone of human interaction, they are in the regulatory spotlight. The chapters explore sustainability in EU banking and insurance regulation, the interrelationship between systemic risk and sustainability, and the ‘greening’ of EU monetary policy. The third part analyses two projects that have led to huge structural changes in the European financial market architecture over the last decade: the European Banking Union and Capital Markets Union. This transformation has raised numerous legal questions that can only gradually be answered in all their intricacies. In four chapters, this book examines composite procedures, property rights of depositors in banking resolution, preemptive financing arrangements and the phenomenon of subsidiarisation in the context of Brexit. Of interest to academics, policymakers, practitioners, and students in the field of EU financial regulation, banking law, securities law, and regulatory law, this book offers a compilation of analyses on pressing banking and capital markets law problems.

Download or read book The Digital Revolution in Banking Insurance and Capital Markets written by Lech Gąsiorkiewicz and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-02-22 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The digital transformation of finance and banking enables traditional services to be delivered in a more effective and efficient way but, at the same time, presents crucial issues such as fast-growing new asset classes, new currencies, datafication and data privacy, algorithmization of law and regulation and, last but not least, new models of financial crime. This book approaches the evolution of digital finance from a business perspective and in a holistic way, providing cutting-edge knowledge of how the digital financial system works in its three main domains: banking, insurance and capital markets. It offers a bird’s-eye view of the major issues and developments in these individual sectors. The book begins by examining the wider framework of the subsequent analysis and over the next three parts, discusses the opportunities, risks and challenges facing the digitalization of these individual financial subsectors, highlighting the similarities and differences in their digitalization agenda, as well as the existing linkages and dependencies among them. The book clarifies the strategic issues facing the development of digital finance in these major subsectors over the coming years. The book has three key messages: that digital transformation changes fundamentally the way financial businesses operate; that individual trades have their own digitalization agenda; and that the state with its regulatory power and central banking and money has a particularly important role to play. It will be of interest to scholars, students and researchers of finance andbanking, as well as policymakers wishing to understand the values and limitations of new forms of digital money.

This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The books deals with the questions that really matter for green finance: Where will the money to finance the transition to a low carbon environment come from, how far do the banks’ balance sheets stretch and where will the rest of the money come from? How much can we rely on the capital markets, especially in the EU, to get money to the parts of the economy which really need it, without greenwashing? How do governments organize not just a transition, but a just transition to a low carbon environment? Is it time to revisit received ideas about the proper role for central banks?
Download or read book Financial Services in the Digital Age written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This special issue of Digital Insights - prepared by the European Digital Forum as part of the Capital Markets Union consultation - the author look at the way digital technology can be harnessed to give consumers and businesses greater access to capital and to make Europe a bigger, more efficient and better regulated capital market. The author will examine the rise of new and innovative financial services such as crowdfunding, blockchain technology and data analytics. They will also scrutinize the veritable revolution new technology has wrought in the traditional banking sector - with many leading market participants embracing technology to provide better services and respond dynamically to 21st century expectations. Put simply, technology has brought a wealth of improved consumer services and greater access to funding opportunities in its wake. If the European Commission wants to make the Capital Markets Union a success, it must tap into this leading force. It needs to do more to encourage the adoption of technology in slow-moving parts of the sector. And it should make the creation, support and adoption of technology a horizontal policy objective, taking care that the Capital Markets Union is not simply siloed out of Europe's digital policy, but that the contemporaneous Digital Single Market initiative has a substantial capital markets union pillar as well."--Pg. 1.

Download or read book The European Central Bank as a Sustainability Role Model written by Harald Bolsinger and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-22 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines selected actions and investments of the European Central Bank (ECB) from a climate and sustainability standpoint. Shedding new light on the topic from various angles – ethical, philosophical, political, economical and legal – it situates sustainability mainstreaming in the finance and investment field at all levels. The former ECB President Mario Draghi once said that he considered sustainable development and an intact environment to be human rights, and therefore enshrined in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights. The acting ECB President Christine Lagarde added that the future path for the climate is uncertain, but it would remain within our power to influence it. However, with all that in mind the ECB’s policy of buying assets as securities is often questionable. This volume analyzes these actions in connection with sustainability, and puts forward practical recommendations for improving the ECB’s investment strategy on its way creating a sustainable financial market.

Download or read book The Eurosystem s Monetary Policy at 25 1999 2023 written by Christos V. Gortsos and published by buch & netz. This book was released on 2024-06-28 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study, completed in April 2024, aims at comprehensively presenting and thoroughly analysing the legal framework governing the definition and implementation of the single monetary policy in the euro area during the first twenty-five years of the Eurosystem’s operation. In this historical context, the focus is on the legal aspects pertaining to the definition and implementation of this single monetary policy since the establishment of the Eurosystem on 1 January 1999 amidst, and in response to, several financial and non-financial crises which erupted in the course of that period (and in particular since 2007, which marked the onset of the Global Financial Crisis). The ultimate goal is to highlight the significant contribution and the importance of the legal framework in shaping the single monetary policy of the Eurosystem, in normal times and at times of stress. The study is structured in two key chapters entitled “The Single Monetary Policy in the Euro Area: Definition and Legal Framework” and “Implementation of the Single Monetary Policy in the Euro Area in Periods of Crises”. The Epilogue (Chapter 3), entitled “Considerations on the Impact of Monetary Policy Decisions on Financial Stability in the Euro Area” discusses the interaction between monetary policy and financial stability, as well as the latest (until April 2024) financial stability conditions in the euro area through the lens of international and EU official reports, taking also into account the (spring 2023) banking turmoil.
Download or read book Making the Financial System Sustainable written by Paul Gregory Fisher and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Towards the end of 2016, the European Commission set up a High-Level Expert Group on Sustainable Finance (the HLEG) with '20 policy leaders from civil society, the finance sector and academia' . They were joined by nine observers from industry associations and other stakeholders, and were supported by a Secretariat from DG FISMA. We were originally tasked with 'making recommendations for a comprehensive EU strategy on sustainable finance as part of the Capital Markets Union'. Privately the group were told that it would help if we could come up with a handful of practical recommendations that the Commission could implement as part of the work of developing the Capital Markets Union. By the end, our mission had become to 'develop an overarching and comprehensive EU road map on sustainable finance'. As a method of compiling input to EU policy, the approach of using an Expert Group was not new - but the outcome went way beyond any previous experience. During 2017 the HLEG broke new ground: the first such group to launch a public consultation and to have a huge, open conference in Brussels to discuss its interim Report . The HLEG met regularly for around 12 months, publishing its Final Report on 30 January 2018 - thanks to some outstanding chairmanship and secretarial support. Rather than a handful, there were over a hundred specific recommendations (in truth, no one has ever counted, exactly!) The Commission published its Action Plan in response just six weeks later (accompanied by another Brussels conference) and published draft legislation in May the same year. For the public sector, such speed was remarkable. But the urgency was warranted, and not just by the proximity of European Parliament elections. Progress globally on reducing greenhouse gas emissions (both flow and stock) is still not fast enough to avoid the high probability of climate-related catastrophe. Indeed, there are already events around the world leading to death and destruction - and financial loss - which are being amplified by global warming"--

Download or read book Digital Finance and the Future of the Global Financial System written by Lech Gąsiorkiewicz and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an in-depth analysis of the most salient features of contemporary financial systems and clarifies the major strategic issues facing the development of digital finance. It provides insight into how the digital finance system actually works in a socioeconomic context. It presents three key messages: that digital transformation will change the financial system entirely, that the State has a particularly important role to play in the whole process and that consumers will be offered more opportunities and freedom but simultaneously will be exposed to more risk and challenges. The book is divided into four parts. It begins by laying down the fundamentals of the subsequent analysis and offers a deep understanding of digital finance, including a topology of the key technologies applied in the transformation process. The next part reviews the challenges facing the digital State in the new reality, the digitalization of public finance and the development of digitally relevant taxation systems. In the third part, digital consumer aspects are discussed. The final part examines the risks and challenges of digital finance. The authors focus their attention on three key developments in financial markets: accelerated growth in terms of the importance of algorithms, replacing existing legal regulations; the expansion of cyber risk and its growing impact and finally the emergence of new dimensions of systemic risk as a side effect of financial digitalization. The authors supplement the analysis with a discussion of how these new risks and challenges are monitored and mitigated by financial supervision. The book is a useful, accessible guide to students and researchers of finance, finance and technology, regulations and compliance in finance.
