The books deals with the questions that really matter for green finance: Where will the money to finance the transition to a low carbon environment come from, how far do the banks’ balance sheets stretch and where will the rest of the money come from? How much can we rely on the capital markets, especially in the EU, to get money to the parts of the economy which really need it, without greenwashing? How do governments organize not just a transition, but a just transition to a low carbon environment? Is it time to revisit received ideas about the proper role for central banks?
Crises and Integration in European Banking Union builds a theory of how the combination of crisis severity and origin indicates whether a crisis will produce deep reform, modest reform, or a persistence of the pre-crisis status quo.
Where might the next systemic financial crisis come from? And how do we achieve financial stability in a poly crisis world?

When central banks started raising interest rates in reaction to the spike in inflation which followed the COVID-19 epidemic, they put an end to a more than a decade of "low for longer" interest rates to which the financial sector had adjusted their balance sheets and business models. The resulting "new monetary order" has required all parts of the financial sector to make serious adjustments. The fate of the US and Swiss banks caught up in the March 2023 "bank turmoil" can be seen as a cautionary tale for those who do not adjust in a timely fashion. This book reviews how the financial sector evolved during "low for longer" and examines how monetary policy, financial regulation and supervision, the banking and the non-bank financial sectors can be expected to evolve under this new order.
This timely book presents an in-depth investigation of who benefits from European financial market regulatory measures and how decision-makers and stakeholders are held politically and administratively accountable.

This book sets out a possible trajectory for the co-development of legal responsibility on the one hand and artificial intelligence and the machines and systems driven by it on the other. As autonomous technologies become more sophisticated it will be harder to attribute harms caused by them to the humans who design or work with them. This will put pressure on legal responsibility and autonomous technologies to co-evolve. Mark Chinen illustrates how these factors strengthen incentives to develop even more advanced systems, which in turn strengthens nascent calls to grant legal and moral status to autonomous machines. This book is a valuable resource for scholars and practitioners of legal doctrine, ethics, and autonomous technologies.
