  1. Building Responsive and Responsible Financial Regulators Following the Global Financial Crisis

    Building Responsive and Responsible Financial Regulators Following the Global Financial Crisis

    Book | 1st edition 2015 | United Kingdom | Pablo Iglesias-Rodriguez
    The global financial crisis that started in 2007 sparked several academic debates about the role that financial sector regulators played in the crisis and prompted policy reforms in the financial supervision architectures of several countries. This book focuses on the question of what accountability, independence, transparency and, more generally, governance mechanisms applicable to financial regulators can better contribute to building responsive, responsible and effective regulatory and supervisory frameworks that tackle the weaknesses of the pre-crisis regimes.

  2. Exemptions for the Non-Performance of Contractual Obligations in CISG Article 79

    Exemptions for the Non-Performance of Contractual Obligations in CISG Article 79

    The Quest for Uniformity in International Sales Law
    Book | 1st edition 2014 | United Kingdom | Peter Mazzacano
    This book explores the international jurisprudence on Article 79 of the 1980 United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG), which is, perhaps, one of its most contentious provisions. The author’s premise is that Article 79—which concerns exemptions for contractual non-performance due to an “impediment” beyond a party’s control—should be interpreted autonomously, that is, as an international norm, without reference to domestic legal concepts and principles. To this end, he considers the application of Article 79 by courts and arbitral tribunals across a number of signatory states.

  11. European Company Law, 2nd edition

    European Company Law, 2nd edition

    Organization, Finance and Capital Markets
    Book | 2nd edition 2011 | Europe | Stefan Grundmann
    Over the last decade, European company law has been re-written completely. Virtually no EU measure remained unchanged and most of them have undergone fundamental reform. This book discusses the EC/EU law first including all instruments through which it is transposed into the national law systems. However, where no EC/EU law exists, a comparative law discussion and policy aspects, namely law and economics, fill the gaps. The whole organism of (limited liability) company law is thus covered.

    Law and Economics in the RIA World

    Improving the use of economic analysis in public policy and legislation
    Book | 1st edition 2011 | Europe | Andrea Renda
    The use of economics in public policy, in the form of ex ante Regulatory Impact Analysis (RIA), is strongly advocated by international organizations such as the OECD and the World Bank. In the US and the EU, hundreds of RIAs are produced every year to justify public intervention in the form of regulation. But reality shows that in many other countries the adoption and implementation of this tool has been patchy at best.
