Personal Security
A creditor who made a loan to a debtor but does not have full confidence into the ability or willingness of the debtor to repay the loan fully and punctually, has two main options for securing his loan capital: He either can demand that the debtor gives him real security by encumbering one or several of his assets. Or he suggests to the debtor to win over a third party to act as a guarantor and to assume joint liability for repayment of the loan. Such a form of personal security by means of a bond has been known for centuries. During the last decades, however, a number of other models for providing personal security for loans have been developed, in particular the guarantee, by now widely us...
Typical Personal Security Rights in the EU
This volume offers an in-depth analysis of the current status of the law and legal practice of personal security rights in the EU. The impact of the financial crisis is specifically considered and the treatment of personal security rights in the Basel II Accord is critically addressed. While focusing on Italian and Spanish legal systems, this comparative study includes extensive references to other EU Member States. The influence of EU private law on this area is also explored. The implications of a harmonised regime for personal security rights in the EU are analysed both from an economic and a legal perspective. In this context, specific reference is made to the latest academic works and policy proposals for EU legal unification ( Principles of European Contract Law / Draft Common Frame of Reference ).
The Foundations and Future of Financial Regulation
Financial regulation has entered into a new era, as many foundational economic theories and policies supporting the existing infrastructure have been and are being questioned following the financial crisis. Goodhart et al’s seminal monograph "Financial Regulation: Why, How and Where Now?" (Routledge:1998) took stock of the extent of financial innovation and the maturity of the financial services industry at that time, and mapped out a new regulatory roadmap. This book offers a timely exploration of the "Why, How and Where Now" of financial regulation in the aftermath of the crisis in order to map out the future trajectory of financial regulation in an age where financial stability is being...
Consumer Credit in the European Union
This report looks at the proposal from the European Commission to replace the existing Directive on consumer credit and replace it with on that aims to offer a higher level of consumer protection and promote an internal market in cross-border credit. It concentrates on three questions: will the proposed harmonisation achieve its objective; will it provide a high level of consumer; will it reduce the amount of protection offered by current UK legislation. It identifies a number of concerns, which it hopes will be addressed by further changes to the text of the draft Directive. And recommends that the issue should be debated I the House
Principles, Definitions and Model Rules of European Private Law
In this volume, the Study Group and the Acquis Group present the first academic Draft of a Common Frame of Reference (DCFR). The Draft is based in part on a revised version of the Principles of European Contract Law (PECL) and contains Principles, Definitions and Model Rules of European Private Law in an interim outline edition. It covers the books on contracts and other juridical acts, obligations and corresponding rights, certain specific contracts, and non-contractual obligations. One purpose of the text is to provide material for a possible "political" Common Frame of Reference (CFR) which was called for by the European Commission's Action Plan on a More Coherent European Contract Law of January 2003.

Exclusive Jurisdiction in Intellectual Property
Exclusive jurisdiction rules related to intellectual property rights cases are insufficiently supported by the arguments usually invoked in their favor. Benedetta Ubertazzi argues that such rules are even contrary to the public international law provisions on the avoidance of a denial of justice and should therefore be abandoned.--
Banking Law
Banking regulation and the private law governing the bank-customer relationship came under the spotlight as a result of the global financial crisis of 2007–2009. More than a decade later UK, EU and international regulatory initiatives have transformed the structure, business practices, financing models and governance of the banking sector. This authoritative text offers an in-depth analysis of modern banking law and regulation, while providing an assessment of its effectiveness and normative underpinnings. Its main focus is on UK law and practice, but where necessary it delves into EU law and institutions, such as the European Banking Union and supervisory role of the European Central Bank...
Direito das Garantias - 4a Edição

Nesta edição, para além da atualização, legal e jurisprudencial, e do desenvolvimento de diferentes pontos das figuras, analisaram-se os quatro acórdãos uniformizadores de jurisprudência mais recentes sobre estas matérias e inclui-se um número adicional sobre o novo regime dos privilégios e garantias na recuperação da empresa.
Siempre tuvimos héroes
En España utilizamos nuestra historia como arma arrojadiza. ¿Tanto tenemos de que avergonzarnos? ¿Somos como se nos pinta y aún peor? ¿Tan malos gobernantes hemos tenido siempre? ¿Será verdad que en España se ha puesto el sol? Nadie duda de la importancia de las aportaciones de España a la Historia Universal. Esta obra nos aporta un enfoque novedoso que hará sentirnos más íntimamente orgullosos de ella. Día a día parecen reivindicarse nuestras gestas militares, pero no las humanas. Para eso nace este libro que recoge casi 1000 años de nuestra historia, desde el 1085 hasta 1971, en los que el humanitarismo fue el principal quehacer de los héroes que siempre tuvimos. Aunque no fuéramos conscientes de ello, tuvimos héroes que no dudaron en poner su vida al servicio de otros. En este libro se condensan por vez primera toda una serie de episodios donde encontraremos esos personajes (María del Carmen Angoloti y Mesa, Alfonso XIII, Fidel Pagés Miravé...) que nos harán estar orgullosos de qué fuimos y qué hicimos a lo ancho del mundo, entregando así un legado que es ya universal.
