Description

The book deals with contemporary issues in financial regulation, given the post-crisis regulatory landscape. The major idea put forward is that rampant corruption and fraud in the financial sector provide the main justification for financial regulation. Specific issues that are dealt with include the proposition that the Efficient Market Hypothesis was both a cause and a casualty of the global financial crisis. The book also examines the regulation of remuneration in the financial sector, credit rating agencies and shadow banking. Also considered is financial reform in Iceland and the proposal to move away from fractional reserve banking to a system of sovereign money. A macroeconomic/regulatory issue that is also considered is quantitative easing and the resulting environment of ultra-low interest rates. Contents:The Post-Crisis Regulatory Landscape: An OverviewRegulatory Issues in the Aftermath of the CrisisFinancial Regulation as a Response to Corruption and FraudThe War on RegulationThe Efficient Market Hypothesis as a Weapon of Mass DestructionThe Regulation of Remuneration in the Financial SectorThe Regulation of Shadow BankingThe Regulation of Credit Rating AgenciesThe Regulatory Implications of Quantitative EasingFinancial Reform in IcelandThe Way Forward Readership: Students and researchers who would like to have an indepth understanding of the current issues in financial regulation.
