Download or read book Global Financial Regulation written by Howard Davies and published by Polity. This book was released on 2008-05-19 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As international financial markets have become more complex, so has the regulatory system which oversees them. The Basel Committee is just one of a plethora of international bodies and groupings which now set standards for financial activity around the world, in the interests of protecting savers and investors and maintaining financial stability. These groupings, and their decisions, have a major impact on markets in developed and developing countries, and on competition between financial firms. Yet their workings are shrouded in mystery, and their legitimacy is uncertain. Here, for the first time, two men who have worked within the system describe its origins and development in clear and accessible terms. Howard Davies was the first Chairman of the UK's Financial Services Authority, the single regulator for the whole of Britain's financial sector. David Green was Head of International Policy at the FSA, after spending thirty years in the Bank of England, and has been closely associated with the development of the current European regulatory arrangements. Now with a revised and updated introduction, which catalogues the changes made since the credit crisis erupted, this guide to the international system will be invaluable for regulators, financial market practitioners and for students of the global financial system, wherever they are located. The book shows how the system has been challenged by new financial instruments and by new types of institutions such as hedge funds and private equity. Furthermore, the growth in importance of major developing countries, who were excluded for far too long from the key decision-making for a has led to a major overhaul. The guide is essential reading for all those interested in the development of financial markets and the way they are regulated. The revised version is only available in paperback.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern Financial Regulation is a practical guide to the UK's Financial Services Act 2012. This new legislation will bring about major structural and regulatory changes to financial services, including: abolition of the UK's Financial Services Authority, which is to be replaced with the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority * introduction of light touch regulation to be replaced by far more robust regime of regulatory, civil injunctive, and criminal enforcement * a new consumer focused investigative and prosecution authority that will regulate consumer markets * a focus on 'principles based' enforcement, which mirrors the approach to consumer law of the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations. The Financial Services Act 2012 amends and consolidates various statutory provisions, and dovetails with several discrete areas of financial regulation, including money laundering, insider trading, and cartel offenses. This new guide explains how all these various strands interlock and how the new approaches are likely to work in practice. Modern Financial Regulation will be essential reading for anyone who requires an understanding of the UK legal framework underpinning the financial services sector. Contents include: an introduction and history of UK financial regulation * an overview of new regulatory framework * prudential regulation authority * Financial Conduct Authority * money laundering * payment services regulations * e-money * cartels, competition, and insider dealing * consumer credit.

Download or read book Legal Aspects of Financial Services Regulation and the Concept of a Unified Regulator written by Kenneth Kaoma Mwenda and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That different types of financial services and products continue to spring up in the financial sector of many countries is indicative of the changing landscape of the financial services industry globally. Equally important, as indicators of the evolving trajectory of financial services regulation, are increases in the number of countries where universal banking is practiced and in numbers of parent and subsidiary companies providing different types of financial services and products. This book is written against that background. A central thesis pursued in the book is that until there is a longer track record of experience with unified regulators, it is difficult to come to firm conclusions about the restructuring process of regulators, and the optimal internal structure of such agencies. In addition, the book examines the concept of an independent regulator, showing how this concept, as a corollary to the concept of a unified regulator, could strengthen the regulatory and institutional framework for financial services supervision if accountability were to be part of such a framework.
