The global shift from the direct holding of securities by investors
to the current intermediated holding system raises many important
legal issues. These include the impact of the intermediated holding
system on the rights of investors, and the enforcement of those
rights against intermediaries and issuers. The cross-border nature
of many holding patterns adds another layer of complexity to these
issues, and reduces legal certainty. Against this, intermediation
offers benefits for many investors, including the ability to hold a
cross-border portfolio with one intermediary, a reduction in costs
and the facilitation of the use of securities in the collateral,
repo, and securities lending markets. This book covers a number of
legal topics relating to intermediated securities including the
history of intermediation, the benefits and problems in the current
intermediated holding system, and how future legal and
technological developments could help to resolve these problems
while retaining the benefits of intermediation. It also examines
the possible impact of FinTech on this area, in particular the
potential for Blockchain to be used in the issuing, holding and
settlement of securities, the extent to which this will solve some
of the difficulties that currently exist, and whether the use of
Blockchain will create new difficulties that will need to be
overcome. This book, which originated in a series of workshops
organised by the Commercial Law Centre at Harris Manchester
College, Oxford, will appeal to those interested in financial and
corporate law, including academics, practitioners, policy makers
and students.
