This book explores the role of law and regulation in sustaining
financial markets in both developed and developing countries,
particularly the European Union, United States and China. The
central argument of this book is that law matters for the operation
of financial markets, which, in turn, significantly influences the
performance of firms, industries, and economies. The Role of Law
and Regulation in Sustaining Financial Markets is divided into four
parts. Part one addresses the connection between law, financial
development, and economic growth. Part two deals with the role of
financial regulation, which can be used to correct market failures,
such as negative externalities, information asymmetries, and
monopolies. Part three focuses on the design, functioning, and
performance of different financial instruments. Part four examines
the topic of Corporate Social Responsibility. This book contributes
to the 'law and finance' literature by studying certain
conventional issues, such as the relationship between finance and
economic growth, and the effects of regulatory quality on financial
development, from new perspectives and/or with new evidence, data,
and cases. It also explores novel topics, such as project finance
contracts, insurance and climate change, the shadow banking system,
that have been overlooked in current literature. This book is
meaningful not only for the EU and the US, which have suffered
considerably from the financial crisis of 2008, but also for China,
which is struggling to build a sound institutional infrastructure
to govern its increasingly complicated financial system. By
comparing the regulatory philosophies and practices of the EU, the
US and China, this book will help the reader to understand the
diverse nature of the global 'law and finance' nexus and avoid
succumbing to the myth of "one size fits all".
