• Conclusions

Responding to growing interest in new regulations adopted by the EU, US, and UK authorities, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the legal and economic aspects of FinTech and the current regulation surrounding it. In particular, the book observes the technological evolution of finance and the 'economic space' that lies between the regulated market and the illegal circulation of capital. Analysing laws that influence the application of technology to the banking and finance sector, the author considers market infrastructure and illustrates how firms execute their activities on a global scale, away from the scope of public supervision and monetary backstops. With globalisation and digitalisation boosting efficiency, the economical relevance of technology is becoming ever more important and therefore this book provides a much-needed examination of the current trends in FinTech regulation, making it an essential read for those researching financial markets, and professionals within the industry.

• Conclusion

Since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Iran has implemented Sharia-compliant banking and finance which makes it one of the few countries that has adopted Islamic banking. The post-war liberalization and privatization of the economy and subsequent deregulation had paved the ground for emergence of private banks and financial institutions which had been subject to strict government control and ownership of banks. Further reform of the banking sector included authorization for the establishment and operations of foreign-owned banks in Iran and ratification of international treaties for the reciprocal protection and promotion of capital investments. The most recent government reform plan concerning adoption of a comprehensive banking law aims to create a single regulator for the prudential regulation and supervision of banks and financial institutions. The implementation of the aforesaid banking reform will be instrumental for achieving a sound and safe banking system and restoring investor confidence in the Iranian banking and money markets.

For the last few years, Ukraine and its financial sector have gradually sought to apply and comply with EU standards. Most recently, the signing of the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement has given Ukraine's transition towards EU standards a formal basis. Ukraine, with EU support, is in the process of implementing EU regulations according to this Agreement. Against this background, the publication Ukrainian Banking Regulation: Its Challenges and Transition towards European Standards elaborates on this process by providing an in-depth background of the current Ukrainian banking regulation, its economics and the challenges of complying with the new EU standards.

• Banking regulation
• The Israeli banking system and its supervision
• Prudential regulation
• Conduct of business regulation
• Prudential regulation versus conduct of business regulation : consolidation or seperation?
• Banking regulation in Israel : the way forward.

"Among the globally competitive countries that withstood the global financial crisis of 2008 with no significant disruption, Israel stands out, suggesting that other countries might benefit from an in-depth analysis of its banking system. Thus, the conservative characteristics of the Israeli Banking System subject to tight and effective regulation have now become a broad global interest. In light of this growing interest, this book serves as an exclusive source of information of Israeli banking law and regulation, and focuses on the most up-to-date global banking regulation issues, as reflected and implemented in Israel. Even though the book focuses on the Israeli system, the Israeli circumstances only serve as a test case for the analysis of broader issues that affect many other countries. [Topics include]: the architecture of financial regulation; nationalization and privatization of banks; conflicts of interest in the banking system resulting from universal banking; problems of concentration and lack of competitiveness in the banking system; the growing power of institutional investors and their entry into traditional banking activities; mechanisms for recovery and resolution in the event of a bank failure; new models of banking regulation, such as self-regulation and contractual regulation. The book focuses on the relationship between the two main banking regulations: prudential regulation and conduct of business regulation. Unlike the Twin Peaks Model that prevails in many other market-based economies, such as the UK, where these two fields of regulation are divided between two different regulatory agencies, in Israel, the Supervisor of Banks is responsible for both. The book aims to examine the suitability of the Twin Peaks Model for Israel, and whether both the regulations should remain in the hands of the Supervisor of Banks."-- Provided by publisher.

Because of the vast and growing economic powerhouse that is China today, businesses and other investors worldwide are looking more and more to that country's resources. Correspondingly, the Chinese government has developed (and continues to develop) a unique and complex system of banking law and regulation that merits the close attention of anyone doing business in China.In this authoritative book, a leading Chinese expert on financial and economic law thoroughly explains the functions, activities and procedures that characterize the behaviour of financial institutions under current Chinese law. Organizing his presentation under three overarching headings - central banking law, domestic banking law, and foreign banking law - he describes such crucial distinctions and clarifications as the following in detail: control of monetary policy formulation and implementation by the People's Bank of China (PBOC); modern central banking functions of the PBOC; independence and accountability of the PBOC; requirements and procedures for banking entry; specific risk-based regulatory and supervisory requirements of the China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC); problem bank resolutions of the CBRC; foreign banking law developments before and post WTO transitional period; and impact of new foreign banking regulations and rules on foreign bank activities in China."Banking Laws in China" is an essential guide for international bankers and their counsel, and a welcome source of important information and insight for business persons interested in the Chinese market or Chinese resources, as well as for international business lawyers. Academics in banking law and related economic disciplines will also find much to interest them here.
