Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a commentary on the law of the EU related to the Monetary Union. It contains a comprehensive analysis of all provisions of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) and the European Central Bank (ECB). In addition, the book also analyses all provisions of the Treaties themselves which regulate the ESCB and the ECB. This analysis is supplemented by commentaries on other Protocols which contain relevant rules for the Monetary Union. In essence, all relevant statutory rules governing the euro and its key monetary authority, the European Central Bank, are unfolded and explained in one volume. This gives the book a unique position in the legal literature on the law of the EU. With contributions by renowned academics and practitioners, this book is an expanded and updated translation of the 2013 German commentary, EWU Kommentar zu Europäischen Währungsunion (Mohr Siebeck) and is an invaluable resource for practitioners and academics alike who are looking for a provision-by-provision commentary on the laws governing the European Monetary Union.

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 European Economic Governance after the Eurozone and COVID 19 Crises written by Ioannis Papadopoulos and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2022-02-15 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 health crisis came as a tremendous shock to the world, and to the EU more particularly, only a few years after the Eurozone crisis. The pandemic exacerbated the old structural differences in the economic models between the South and the North of Europe. However, this time, the response of the EU was of a completely different nature: an impressive array of fiscal and monetary policy instruments was mobilized to counteract the shock of the pandemic and to restore confidence. Is there reason to be optimistic in these times of uncertainty? This volume explores possible answers to this question, bringing together several renowned European intellectuals and experts from the fields of economics, law, and public policy to offer their thoughts. The book will stimulate discussion on the quality of institutions and growth sustainability, and contains ideas on the future of Europe and the reorganization of European economic governance. It analyzes the basic fiscal and monetary policy tools used by the EU to tackle the Eurozone and COVID-19 pandemic crises. Several aspects of the EU Banking Union and possible structural reforms of the banking sector are also discussed, as is the role of Credit Rating Agencies as tools of economic prediction.

Download or read book The New European Central Bank Taking Stock and Looking Ahead written by Thomas Beukers and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-11-28 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Central Bank (ECB) was first introduced in the European legal order on the occasion of the Treaty of Maastricht (1992). An official EU institution which is governed by EU law, the ECB of modern times differs vastly from its inception in 1998, which manifests in three main ways: monetary policy options, consideration of concerns other than low inflation in its policy-making, and its role in the Banking Union. This edited collection offers a retrospective and prospective account of the ECB, charting its evolution in detail with chapters written by leading academics and practitioners. Part 1 examines the substantive changes to monetary policy introduced by the ECB as a consequence of the financial and sovereign debt crisis by considering their legal basis. Part 2 moves beyond monetary policy by shifting to the new roles that the ECB has been called upon to play, notably in banking supervision and resolution. Parts 3 and 4 deal with transformations to inter- and intra-institutional relations, and take stock of these transformations, reflecting on the nature of the ECB of current times and which direction it could be heading in the future. The authors analyse the most salient and controversial elements of the ECB's crisis response, including unconventional monetary policy measures and the ECB's risk management strategy. Beyond monetary policy, the book further examines the role played by objectives such as financial stability and environmental sustainability, the ECB's relationship to the Lender of Last Resort function, as well as its new responsibilities in the Banking Union.

Download or read book Equivalence in Financial Services written by Francesco Pennesi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-04-24 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Equivalence in Financial Services offers a comprehensive and cross-industry examination of the rules and procedures under EU financial legislation dedicated to third-country market actors. The equivalence regime has become particularly topical after Brexit, as the United Kingdom is now a third country from the perspective of the European Union. This book investigates whether the current equivalence system is fit for its purpose, namely facilitating cross-border finance while minimizing as extensively as possible financial risks. After describing how the European Commission adopts equivalence measures, the book examines the implementation of the equivalence regime for the following entities: Credit Rating Agencies, Benchmarks, Trading Venues, Investment Firms, Investment Funds, Central Securities Depositories, Trade Repositories, and Central Counterparties. Addressing the most recent policy and legal developments, Equivalence in Financial Services provides an insightful guide into this complex area of financial regulation for scholars of financial regulation, legal practitioners, and policy makers.

Download or read book Central Banks and Financial Markets written by Dieter Gerdesmeier and published by Frankfurt School Verlag. This book was released on 2021-02-10 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Financial markets exercise an enormous influence over modern economies and it is certainly not exaggerated to say that central banks are among the most important actors in financial markets. At the same time, central banks closely monitor the signals and the overall situation in financial markets, often trying to avoid the worst when the situation becomes fragile. The structure of this book aims at presenting the key concepts of the financial sphere in an accessible and easy-to-read format. Starting from the very basics, the book discusses markets, instruments, and processes before presenting them in an overall framework. The latter helps to understand how the various parts interact and relate to the whole. Numerous examples and end-of-chapter summaries add to a better understanding of the concepts used. The book is targeted towards students interested in the world of finance and monetary policy. Both authors have spent decades in the practice of central banking and financial markets and can look back on a long tradition of very successful teaching activities

Download or read book FinTech Regulation written by Valerio Lemma and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-04-25 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Responding to growing interest in new regulations adopted by the EU, US, and UK authorities, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the legal and economic aspects of FinTech and the current regulation surrounding it. In particular, the book observes the technological evolution of finance and the ‘economic space’ that lies between the regulated market and the illegal circulation of capital. Analysing laws that influence the application of technology to the banking and finance sector, the author considers market infrastructure and illustrates how firms execute their activities on a global scale, away from the scope of public supervision and monetary backstops. With globalisation and digitalisation boosting efficiency, the economical relevance of technology is becoming ever more important and therefore this book provides a much-needed examination of the current trends in FinTech regulation, making it an essential read for those researching financial markets, and professionals within the industry.

Download or read book Central Bank Digital Currency written by Leo Kriese and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-02 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a deeper understanding of digitisation and innovative technologies in the financial sector. It focuses on a digital version of sovereignly created money that is accessible to the broad public. This central bank digital currency (CBDC) raises several questions. Will CBDC lead to public surveillance of the citizens? What is digital money in the legal sense? And what is the difference to already existing forms of digital money? This book addresses main questions associated with central bank digital currency by providing background information as well as in-depth analyses. The book introduces a basic understanding of innovative technologies such as the distributed ledger technology. It shows how a system of money can be created and what roles each participant has. Taking an economic point of view, the book demonstrates the monetary policy in the euro area and examines how a digital version of public money could affect the transmission mechanism as well as the financial stability. Could CBDC lead to a "digital bank run"? Could it replace the established financial intermediaries such as banks? What would that mean to the economy? Mainly, the book focuses on the legal issues of CBDC. Which is the competent institution for establishing digital public money? Will digital money change the way of how we handle financial data? Also, the book examines the legal usability of CBDC in the economy. How can digital money based on innovative technologies be transferred in accordance with the law? Can a debtor of a monetary claim flee into the digital currency? This book addresses the public and private sector participants as well as the legislators on how to handle CBDC. Most important, the book addresses everyone interested in digitisation and innovative financial technology who wants to gain a deeper understanding of the next big evolvement of money.

Download or read book FinTech and SupTech in China written by Dawei Zhao and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-06 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book starts from the application of technologies in financial institutions and financial regulators in China, and defines the concept and connotation of FinTech and SupTech in the form of topics, analyses the main problems in the development process, and discusses in depth the future development and regulatory tendency of FinTech and SupTech. In recent years, with the in-depth application and cross-domain integration of information technology in the financial world, FinTech has rapidly developed and has been widely applied, which brings us an important enlightenment: technical factors will bring fundamental changes for the development of the modern financial industry. While improving financial efficiency, it has an impact on the core financial problems such as information matching and mutual trust solving, making it urgent to improve financial supervision capacity and regulatory efficiency through information technology to effectively guarantee financial security. At present, many Chinese financial institutions have applied technologies to their daily operations and management, such as accurate customer identification, enhanced process tracking, intelligent marketing, and product process transformation, so as to simplify financial service processes and shorten service cycles. Meanwhile, the financial regulators in China, such as PBOC, CBIRC, CSRC, have also applied technologies to the area of financial regulation, in order to reduce the cost of regulation, and promote the efficiency and effectiveness of regulation. In General, this book both pays attention to practical application and theoretical, which is a useful reference book for theoretical research and practical work, and also helps readers to understand the application of technologies in financial institutions and financial regulators in China.

Download or read book Financial Institutions in Distress written by Associate Professor Emeritus Ronald Davis and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-08-25 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political boundaries are often porous to finance, financial intermediation, and financial distress. Yet they are highly impervious to financial regulation. When inhabitants of a country suffering a deficit of purchasing power are able to access and deploy funds flowing in from a country with a surfeit of such power, the inhabitants of both countries may benefit. They may also benefit when institutions undertaking such cross-border financial intermediation experience economies of scale and are able to innovate and to offer funds and services at lower costs. Inevitably, however, at least some such institutions will sometimes act imprudently, some of the projects in which such funds are deployed may be unwise, and other such projects can suffer from unforeseen circumstances. As a result of such factors, a financial institution may suffer distress in one country, and may then transmit such distress to other countries in which it operates. The efficacy of any response to such cross-border transmission of distress may turn on the response being given due effect in both (or all) the territories in which the distressed financial institution operates. This situation creates a conundrum for policymakers, legislators, and regulators who wish to enable those subject to their jurisdiction to access the benefits of cross-border financial intermediation, yet cannot make rules and regulations that would have effect outside that jurisdiction. This book explores this conundrum and offers a response. It does so by drawing on and adding to the literatures on financial intermediation, regulation, and distress, and on existing hard and soft laws and regulations. The book advocates for the creation of a model law that would address the full range of financial institutions, including insurance companies, and that would enable relevant authorities to cooperate with counterparts in advance of the onset of distress and to give appropriate effect in their jurisdiction to measures taken by counterpart authorities in other jurisdictions in which the distressed institution also operates.
