Download or read book Commercial Trusts in European Private Law written by Michele Graziadei and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-11-03 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In European legal systems, a variety of approaches to trust and relationships of trust meet the universal professionalisation of asset management services. This book explores that interface in order to seek a better understanding of the legal regulation of the entrustment of wealth. Within the methodology of the Common Core of European Private Law, the book sets out cases on the establishment and termination of management relationships, obligations of loyalty and of professionalism, and the choice of law. More specialized cases address collective investment, collective secured lending, pension funds, and securitisation. Reports on these cases from fifteen jurisdictions of the European Union tackle fundamental problems of trust law and show which legal techniques are deployed to solve them across Europe. In addition to a much-needed comparative treatment of the subject, the book discusses the scholarly setting for the issues and gives guidance on the terminology in the evolving European scene.

Download or read book Italian Banking and Financial Law Intermediaries and Markets written by D. Siclari and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-12 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's increasingly global and integrated financial climate, there is an amplified need for cooperation between regulators and supervisors across the globe in order to promote economic growth and maintain competitive markets. However, idiosyncrasies remain within local markets, and for those wishing to participate within them, it is necessary to understand the distinctive qualities of each. This book explores the intermediaries of the Italian financial system. It examines the banks, investment services, electronic payment institutions, insurance companies and credit rating agencies functioning in the country, to explore how Italian regulation functions within the context of a wider harmonizing trend. The authors present a study on the current control models of the Italian markets in the wake of changes induced by the privatization of public banks, the increased size and complexity of the intermediaries, the increased level of competition, and the internationalization of the financial innovation. They explain how the country's financial markets are controlled by a combination of bodies, including the State, the authorities and the market participants themselves.

Download or read book Hedge Fund Regulation in the European Union written by Phoebus Athanassiou and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2009-04-14 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While hedge funds have been part and parcel of the global asset management landscape for well over fifty years, it is only relatively recently that they came to prominence as one of the fastest growing and most vigorous sub-sectors of the financial services industry. Despite their growing significance for global and European financial markets, hedge funds continue enjoying a sui generis regulatory status. The ongoing credit crisis and its lessons for the wisdom of unregulated or loosely regulated pockets of financial activity raise, with renewed urgency, the issue of deciding how long for the relative regulatory immunity of hedge funds is to be tolerated in the name of financial innovation. This well-thought-out book, the first of its kind in this particular field, examines the case for the European onshore hedge fund industry’s regulation, making concrete proposals for its normative future. Following a detailed account of the ‘established’ regulatory systems in Ireland and Luxembourg, as well as of the ‘emerging’ hedge fund jurisdictions in Italy, France, Spain and Germany, and of the regulatory treatment of hedge funds in the UK, this book examines to what extent the continuing exclusion of hedge funds from harmonized European regulation is defensible, whether their differences to traditional asset management products justify their distinct regulatory treatment and, ultimately, if their EU-wide regulation is possible and, if so, what form this should take. This book offers enormously valuable insights into all facets of the subject of the regulation of hedge funds, including: the legitimacy of the public policy interest in their activities; the conceptual underpinnings and systemic stability emphasis of a realistic hedge fund regulatory scheme; the main parameters of a workable onshore hedge fund regulatory framework; the role of investor protection and market integrity as part of a holistic hedge fund regulatory scheme; the possible use of the UCITS framework as a foundation for the EU-wide regulation of hedge funds; the MiFID’s impact on the regulatory future of the European hedge fund industry; existing cross-jurisdictional differences and similarities in the normative treatment of hedge funds within the EU; hitherto initiatives and recommendations of the Community institutions and bodies; and the need for more efficient co-operation and information-sharing arrangements amongst national supervisors for the monitoring of the cross-border risks inherent in the activities of hedge funds. As the first ever comprehensive account of the profile, main features and normative future of the contemporary global and European hedge fund markets – including a systematic inquiry into the conceptual underpinnings of hedge fund regulation and a detailed examination of the European hedge fund industry’s treatment under Community and domestic law – this book represents a major contribution to the literature on hedge funds and their regulation which, through its concrete proposals for the onshore industry’s regulation and its clear analysis of the conditions necessary for their implementation, should be of extraordinary value to policymakers, supervisors and academics alike.

Download or read book Alternative Acquisition Models and Financial Innovation written by Daniele D'Alvia and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-10-11 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book written in English on special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) in the context of European and Italian financial law, introducing the topic with a general overview on the European stage. It is also the first book on European financial regulations of SPACs. As such, it is a groundbreaking reference text for SPAC studies at the international level. Alternative Acquisition Models and Financial Innovation: Special Purpose Acquisition Companies in Europe, and the Italian Legal Framework offers the most comprehensive overview of the current international financial regulations of SPACs in the EU and UK compared to the main legal system where SPACs originated—the US. This edited book is focused on finding a European legal framework for SPACs by discovering whether the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD) or the Undertakings for the Collective Investment in Transferable Securities Directive (UCITS) are applicable to them and why, as well as identifying the objectives of financial regulation of SPACs in the EU, US and UK. Essentially, the edited collection explores soft law and self-regulation instances against the state-based Westphalian approaches centred on hard law instances; describes practical examples of SPACs in Italy and Europe; and analyses the limits and perspectives of such investment vehicles on the Italian capital market as well as their possible uses as forms of shadow banking and venture companies at international levels.

Download or read book Gli organismi di investimento collettivo del risparmio OICR written by Filippo Annunziata and published by EGEA spa. This book was released on 2017-03-27T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nell'impianto della disciplina sulla gestione collettiva del risparmio, come riflessasi in Italia a seguito del recepimento delle ultime Direttive europee in materia, si rinvengono due distinte forme di organizzazione di tale attività finanziaria: si tratta, da un lato, del fondo comune di investimento e, dall'altro, degli organismi di investimento collettivo del risparmio (OICR) aventi forma societaria. In altri ordinamenti, le forme organizzative che la gestione collettiva del risparmio può assumere ricomprendono, da lungo tempo, ulteriori schemi, tra i quali, ovviamente, il trust – vero e proprio “archetipo” logico-concettuale della categoria degli organismi di investimento collettivo – le forme societarie non appartenenti al genus delle società di capitali, nonché le partnership. Il volume si propone l’obiettivo di ricostruire, sulla base della disciplina europea (Direttiva AIFMD e Direttiva UCITS) e delle disposizioni del Testo Unico della Finanza, la nozione generale di OICR, ponendone in luce gli elementi qualificanti. La portata spiccatamente funzionale della normativa europea, che tende a prescindere dagli schemi che, concretamente, può assumere l’OICR, consente altresì di indagare i profili di contatto tra forme contrattuali (il fondo comune di investimento) e forme statutarie (SICAV e SICAF), quali disciplinate, in particolare, nel sistema italiano. I due schemi organizzativi presentano, in effetti, numerosi punti di convergenza, che testimoniano un intenso fenomeno di circolazione delle regole tra due modelli apparentemente molto diversi. Gli schemi che provengono dal diritto comune vengono così piegati al perseguimento delle finalità di policy legislativa, in primis rappresentate dalla protezione e dalla tutela degli investitori, e dal buon funzionamento del mercato.

Book excerpt: This book explores the various connections between Law and Opera, providing a comprehensive, multinational, and multidisciplinary (with approaches from jurists, philosophers, musicologist, historians) resource on the subject. Further, it makes a valuable contribution to studies on law and the humanities. While, for example, the relationship between law and literature has been extensively researched, the relationship between Law and Opera remains largely overlooked.

Download or read book Old Age Provision and Homeownership Fiscal Incentives and Other Public Policy Options written by Martina Eckardt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-10 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In light of demographic change and the growing problems of traditional old-age security systems, this book discusses two essential instruments in connection with privately providing for old-age security: (1) savings in private pension schemes and (2) building up equity for home-ownership. Further, it assesses the relationship between the two instruments and offers a unique overview of the latest market developments. In order to represent the profound differences between the individual member states of the EU, this book features six country-specific studies – covering Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom – that provide detailed insights into the complexity of local private pension schemes, mortgage markets, and housing markets. Lastly, the book discusses public policies and fiscal incentives intended to better integrate residential property with private pensions. It will appeal to both, private households seeking to build up old-age security, as well as policy makers interested in providing secure pension schemes.

Download or read book A Journey to the End of the Millennium written by A.B. Yehoshua and published by Halban Publishers. This book was released on 2012-07-05 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year is 999 A.D. Christians in Europe are preparing themselves for the arrival of the Messiah at the millennium and religious fervour is in the air. Sailing from the North African port of Tangier to a small, distant town called Paris are a Jewish merchant, Ben Attar, his two beloved wives and his Arab partner, Abu Lutfi. They have come for a meeting with their third partner the widower, Raphael Abulafia who has been forced to turn his back on their previous trading partnership because of his new wife's distrust of the dual marriage of Ben Attar. The latter turns this annual trading voyage into a personal quest to legitimise his second wife, restore his honour and, equally important, to show others the richness and humanity in his way of life. A confrontation ensues between people of different cultures whose ways of living and loving are so different, and yet who are of the same religion, believe in the same God and in the same morality. Thus we enter a profound human drama whose moral conflicts of fidelity and desire resonate deeply with our times. A. B. Yehoshua has imaginatively recreated a medieval world with its merchant trade in great depth and sensuous detail. His evocation of one man's love is lyrical, erotic even, and A Journey to the End of the Millennium will rank with the best of Yehoshua's work.

Download or read book Islamic Finance in Europe written by Mohyedine Hajjar and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-05-10 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information about Islamic finance in European countries is usually provided by professional-style reports, offering practical data on implementation of standardized products. However, precise developments about material legal provisions applicable to contracts and their actual legal regime are not often detailed. In order to fill this gap, 15 researchers from across Europe contributed to this project. They describe the state of actual Islamic finance in 10 European countries, as well as applicable EU law. By combining legal analysis with statistical description of existing practices and social demand, this book provides an exhaustive account of the current potential of Islamic finance in Europe.
