Increasingly extraterritorial regulation of states, protectionist tendencies, and the EU's tightening of its foreign trade policy result in a growing legal fragmentation that stands in stark contrast to the reality of global financial markets. This fragmentation can lead to restricted market access and poses significant legal and economic risks. Equivalence and Substituted Compliance in Financial Markets Law champions deference as a viable concept to counteract this development. The book examines the mechanisms of equivalence and substituted compliance in the European Union, Switzerland and the United States from a comparative, economic, and constitutional perspective. Discussing questions o...
This book covers three topics that have dominated financial market regulation and supervision debates: digital finance, sustainable finance, and the Banking and Capital Markets Union. Within the first part, seven chapters will tackle specific questions arising in digital finance, including but not limited to artificial intelligence, tokenisation, and international regulatory cooperation in digital financial services. The second part addresses one of humanity’s most pressing issues today: the climate crisis. The quest for sustainable finance is driven by political actors and a common understanding that climate change is a severe threat. As financial institutions are a cornerstone of human i...
This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the primary challenges, opportunities and regulatory developments associated with the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the financial sector. It will show that, while AI has the potential to promote a more inclusive and competitive financial system, the increasing use of AI may bring certain risks and regulatory challenges that need to be addressed by regulators and policymakers.
The topic of investor protection has occupied investors, businesses, regulators, academics, and courts since the 1930s. The topic exploded in importance after the 2008 financial crisis and the Bernard Madoff Ponzi scheme of the same year. Investor protection scholarship now seeks to respond to developments such as the institutionalization of the markets, the democratization of finance, and the enhanced role of market professionals and other gatekeepers. Additionally, although the philosophy of full disclosure remains the guiding principle behind the securities laws, recent research has questioned the merits of a disclosure-based regime. In light of these trends, regulators try to strike the right balance between imposing a strict investor protection regime, on the one hand, and giving businesses the freedom to innovate new projects, market new services, and reduce costs, on the other. The Cambridge Handbook of Investor Protection brings together leading scholars to inform this debate and fill a gap left by these developments.

Der Regelungsanspruch des Bankaufsichtsrechts erstreckt sich auch auf die Anteilseigner von Kreditinstituten. Er steht damit in bemerkenswertem Kontrast zu den meisten Bereichen staatlicher Wirtschaftsregulierung. Clemens Bohm untersucht das Aufsichtsregime fur den europaischen Bankenmarkt mit einem Fokus auf die Stellung der Anteilseigner. Im Mittelpunkt stehen der aufsichtsrechtliche Bankbegriff als sachliche Grenze dieses Regimes, die Zurechnung von Stimmrechten und Kapitalanteilen zu "indirekten" Beteiligungsinhabern und die rechtlichen Anforderungen an diesen Investorenkreis. Besondere Berucksichtigung finden nationale Bestimmungen, welche auch die fur die Entscheidung zustandige Europaische Zentralbank weiterhin zu beachten hat. Clemens Bohm zeigt dogmatische wie auch praktische Schwachstellen der Anteilseignerkontrolle auf und entwickelt pragmatische Losungsansatze de lege lata und de lege ferenda.

Today, global competition obliges companies dealing in international trade to modernize their procedures of delivery in order to minimize the customs burden and simplify the relation with customs authorities. Customs planning is the current option to be effective in the worldwide marketplace. However, customs officials are facing new challenges: they must ensure the smooth flow of trade while applying necessary controls on the one hand, while protecting the health and safety of the Community's citizens on the other. To achieve and maintain the correct balance between these demands, control methods are constantly evolving raising major challenges to those charged with planning and compliance....
