Opis

Now in its second edition, this user-friendly and comprehensive guide to the law of banking in Scotland provides in-depth analysis covering all matters relevant to bankers in both domestic and commercial banking operations in Scotland. This new edition has been thoroughly updated throughout. The key sections on securities have been drastically expanded as this is an area in which there has been an explosion of litigation, therefore it is of increasing importance to practitioners. The contents include: the historical development of banking, legal framework of banking and its supervision, customers of a bank, relationship between bank and customer, types of accounts, negotiable instruments and other orders for payment, the collecting banker and the paying banker, modern methods of money transfer, security for advances made by bankers, heritable securities, and appendices for codes of banking practice and the Ombudsman Scheme.
