Current Legal Problems - Development in Banking and Finance

Banking, finance and the money markets continue to be the focus of worldwide judicial, legislative and media attention, as a rapidly developing area of legal practice and academic study. "Current Developments in Banking and Finance" selects five topics for detailed scrutiny by experienced practitioners and academic commentators.

These are: netting agreements in organized and private markets, bank guaranteed issues and facilities, "money will not manage itself..." - an outline of banking and financial regulation, insider trading, and the regulation of international financial intermediaries in the United Kingdom.

Part of University College London's Current Legal Problems, this special issue explores these intricate topics in finance and banking law, which will be of vital importance to practising and academic lawyers, as well as to bankers and financial advisors.
