Post-crisis capital regulations and new failure-resolution rules increased the funding costs that are borne by bank shareholders, and thus the cost to buy-side firms for access to space on the balance sheets of large banks. A policy implication is the encouragement of market infrastructure and trading methods that reduce the amount of space on bank balance sheets that is needed to conduct a given amount of trade. Using models and evidence, this book addresses the implications for financial-market liquidity of these regulations for systemically important banks and argues that current rules do not allow for potential levels of market efficiency and financial stability. In this insightful analysis of the impact of regulation on financial market efficiency post-2008, the author argues that bank capital levels could actually be pushed higher while still improving the liquidity of markets for safe assets such as low-risk fixed-income instruments by relaxing the leverage-ratio rule and increasing risk-based capital requirements.
Gegenstand der Dissertation ist eine umfassende rechtstatsächliche und finanzmarktrechtliche Einordnung des Phänomens der dezentralen Handelsplattformen (Decentralized Exchanges, DEX). Der Autor behandelt die Frage, ob dezentrale Handelsplattformen unter Berücksichtigung der mit ihnen verbundenen Innovationschancen und der von ihnen ausgehenden Risiken einen Regulierungsanlass darstellen und wie darauf reagiert werden kann. Die Arbeit zeigt die praktischen Einordnungsprobleme auf, mit welchen das heutige Finanzmarktrecht konfrontiert ist. Um für diese Probleme mögliche Antworten zu entwickeln, erarbeitet der Autor auf der Grundlage eines Rechtsprinzips der Dezentralität Kriterien, welche die Abgrenzung dezentraler Handelsplattformen von Erscheinungsformen erlauben, die über keine ausreichende Verteilung der Kontroll- und Machtstrukturen verfügen (Dezentralitätstest). Der Autor kommt zum Schluss, dass für dezentrale Phänomene in erster Linie Regulierungsansätze überzeugend sind, die ihre Grundlage in einer selbstverantwortlich und wettbewerblich organisierten Finanzmarktordnung haben.
Partindo da sua dissertação de mestrado em Direito e Mercados Financeiros, Pedro Farrim analisa neste livro os pressupostos de viabilidade jurídica da utilização de ativos criptografados como garan-tia em contratos financeiros. Para melhor enquadrar e explicar esta nova realidade, começa por fazer uma exposição técnica da Bitcoin e do sistema informático subjacente, analisa seguidamente a natu-reza e a qualificação jurídica deste tipo de ativos, e procede à avaliação da possibilidade de eles pode-rem ser qualificados e subsumidos, para efeitos de aplicação do RJCGF, aos conceitos de numerário, valor mobiliário ou instrumento financeiro. Discute ainda, em abstrato, as características de adequa-ção material dos ativos criptografados como garantia em contratos financeiros, assim como as exi-gências operacionais e de procedimento relacionadas com a celebração e a execução do contrato e de todo o procedimento envolvente. Termina com breve exposição dos benefícios da utilização destes ativos como garantia em contratos financeiros, quer para os prestadores, quer para os beneficiários da garantia.
This book provides linguists with a clear, critical, and comprehensive overview of theoretical and experimental work on information structure. Leading researchers survey the main theories of information structure in syntax, phonology, and semantics as well as perspectives from psycholinguistics and other relevant fields. Following the editors' introduction the book is divided into four parts. The first, on theories of and theoretical perspectives on information structure, includes chapters on topic, prosody, and implicature. Part 2 covers a range of current issues in the field, including focus, quantification, and sign languages, while Part 3 is concerned with experimental approaches to information structure, including processes involved in its acquisition and comprehension. The final part contains a series of linguistic case studies drawn from a wide variety of the world's language families. This volume will be the standard guide to current work in information structure and a major point of departure for future research.
After 9/11, rightists capitalized on an atmosphere of fear and confusion to resuscitate the “culture wars” of the 1990s and once again targeted the academy. Using tactics reminiscent of the McCarthy era, religious firebrands, militant neoconservatives, and free market fundamentalists engaged in a concerted effort to silence voices critical of the ‘war on terror’ and liken legitimate dissent to treason. Brandishing a discourse of “patriotic correctness” (PC) that was informed by American ‘exceptionalism,’ Christian nationalism, anti-intellectualism, and virulent anti-liberalism, this coalition portrayed the professoriate as a dangerous cabal seeking the demise of ‘Western ci...
