Opis

This book is a leading authority on central banking and financial regulation, including detailed legal and policy analysis of the institutions that safeguard monetary stability and financial stability nationally, at the EU level and globally.
The new edition has been renamed (previously 'Legal Foundations of International Monetary Stability') to better reflect the book's breadth of coverage, which includes an in-depth study of central banking, a fresh look at supervision, regulation and crisis management after the global financial crisis. It also includes updated material on the law of the European Central Bank and banking union, the law of the IMF and work undertaken by international standard-setters, in particular the FSB and the Basel Committee.
Part I focuses on national developments, Part II deals with EU developments and Part III examines international developments. Each of these sections commences with a historical chapter, then analyses the framework of the 'monetary architecture'. Finally, each part considers the 'financial architecture' with regard to the functions of financial supervision (micro and macro) and surveillance, regulation and crisis management, including lender of last resort and resolution.

Recenzje

International Financial and Monetary Law is absolutely remarkable. It combines impeccable legal analysis and a deep understanding of the economics of the issues raised. The developments on the IMF, the European Union, the Supervisory setting, Central Banks Law, ... contain a wealth of insights that make the book an indispensable tool for students, researchers and practitioners. Jacques de Larosière, Chairman of the Strategic Committee of the French Treasury and Advisor to BNP Paribas, former Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund
