Download or read book Bank Politics written by David Howarth and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-11-03 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of banks being 'too big to fail' was the defining regulatory issue of the global financial crisis. However, attempts to tackle the problem by separating retail banking from higher risk trading activities - known as structural reform - proved to be highly divisive and contributed to significant regulatory divergence. In this book, David Howarth and Scott James explain this variation by examining the politics of bank structural reform across six key jurisdictions: the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and the Netherlands. Integrating political economy and public policy approaches, they develop a novel 'comparative financial power' framework to analyse how financial industry influence is mediated by two factors: first, whether bank lobbying is unified and centralized (cooperative financial power) or divided and fragmented (competitive financial power); and second, policy makers' use of venue shifting to depoliticize contentious policy issues. The book explains that the US and UK governments implemented major reforms because the banking industry was divided and faced significant opposition. However, venue shifting to an independent committee led to durable reform in the UK, while political polarization in the US contributed to contested reform. By contrast, the French and German governments balanced unified bank lobbying and political pressures to act by pursuing limited symbolic reforms; the Dutch government deflected the issue through delegation to multiple commissions (no reform); while political stalemate at the EU level resulted from early venue shifting and concerted pan-European bank lobbying. The book makes a major contribution to scholarship on the political economy of finance and business power.
Download or read book Droit de la finance alternative written by Jean-Marc Moulin and published by Bruylant. This book was released on 2017-05-11 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La finance est en crise ; mais elle est indispensable à la vie des hommes en société. Cependant, il serait abusif de considérer "la finance" comme un tout homogène. En effet, loin de la finance conventionnelle qui fait la une de l'actualité, il existe une finance dite alternative qui tente de placer et de maintenir l'Homme au centre de son projet et à l'horizon de son ambition. Cet ouvrage, premier du genre, se propose de présenter sous forme d'études réalisées par des spécialistes du droit financier, les manifestations de cette finance alternative, les outils, instruments et techniques juridiques qui existent et qui permettent de concilier finance et humanisme. À travers l'analyse des critères de développement durable ou religieux appliqués à la finance, des monnaies alternatives, du microcrédit, de la notation extra-financière, du mutualisme et du coopératisme en finance, du crowdfunding, des fonds éthiques, du financement associatif, du financement alternatif de l'habitat ou du soutien des collectivités publiques aux entreprises, ce livre fait, en France comme en Espagne, au Royaume-Uni, en Grèce et au Canada, un tour d'horizon complet de ce segment du secteur financier souvent méconnu et qui offre néanmoins aux Hommes de réaliser leurs projets dans la perspective d'un mieux-être collectif. Pour rompre avec l'idée que la finance n'est que spéculation et prédation.

Download or read book La d r glementation des conomies anglo saxonnes written by Martine Azuelos and published by Presses Sorbonne Nouvelle. This book was released on 1995 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les économies anglo-saxonnes ont vécu, entre le milieu des années 1970 et la fin des années 1980, sous le signe de la déréglementation, et le mouvement qu'elles impulsèrent ne tarda pas à se propager à l'ensemble du monde, transformant ainsi de façon radicale les règles du jeu auxquelles sont soumis les agents économiques. Souvent dû à des facteurs techniques, ce processus fut également encouragé par les pouvoirs publics qui, face à la crise, ne voyaient d'autre salut que la mise en cause de pratiques qui avaient fait l'objet d'un assez large consensus pendant les années de croissance consécutives à la seconde guerre mondiale. Longtemps conçu comme un ensemble de garde-fous destiné à limiter les abus et à protéger les agents, le cadre réglementaire n'apparaissait plus guère que comme un carcan entravant le libre jeu des forces du marché, nuisant à l'efficacité économique et expliquant donc le ralentissement de la croissance. Cet ouvrage, qui rassemble les actes d'un colloque organisé en juin 1993 à l'Université de la Sorbonne Nouvelle par le Centre d'études et de recherches sur la vie économique des pays anglo-saxons (CERVEPAS), ne prétend pas épuiser le sujet. Il enrichit toutefois notre réflexion en proposant une étude comparée des évolutions qui se sont produites en Grande-Bretagne et aux États-Unis, sur lesquelles universitaires français et acteurs ou observateurs privilégiés venus d'outre-Manche ou d'outre-Atlantique portent des regards croisés. Situant la déréglementation dans la perspective de l'histoire des faits et de la pensée économiques, il analyse aussi les mesures mises en œuvre dans des secteurs comme la défense et l'audiovisuel, ou encore dans le domaine bancaire et financier. Se trouve ainsi mise en lumière la très grande variété des mécanismes en jeu. dont ne saurait rendre compte un chapelet d'analyses monocausales. À l'épaisseur des faits se devait en effet de répondre la diversité des angles d'approche. Le bilan dressé ici permettra sans doute à tous ceux qui s'intéressent aux économies anglo-saxonnes de mieux cerner les perspective qui s’ouvrent à elles pour l’avenir.
