The 2007-08 financial crisis has posed substantial challenges for
bankers, economists and regulators: was it preventable, and how can
such crises be avoided in future? This book addresses these
questions. The Financial Crisis and the Regulation of Finance
includes a comprehensive overview of the crisis and reviews the
theory and practice of regulation in the UK and worldwide. The
contributors - all international experts on financial markets and
regulation - provide perspectives and analysis on macro-prudential
regulation, the regulation of financial firms, and the role of
shareholders and disclosure. This rigorous book will be of great
interest to all those with an interest in banking and finance
including academics, professionals, bankers, regulators, advisors
and civil servants. Students on banking and finance courses will
also find this clear and compact resource invaluable. Contributors:

In the last two decades, the role of finance in the development
process has become a major topic of research and debate. Although
it is widely agreed that there is an important link between the
two, there is much less consensus on the exact nature of the
relationship. Is financial development a prerequisite for general
economic development, or is it a more passive by-product of the
development process? In this valuable new book, a distinguished
group of authors takes stock of the existing state of knowledge in
the field of finance and the development process. Each chapter
offers a comprehensive survey and synthesis of current issues.
These include such critical subjects as savings, financial markets
and the macroeconomy, stock market development, financial
regulation, foreign investment and aid, financing livelihoods,
microfinance, rural financial markets, small and medium
enterprises, corporate finance and banking. This book will be
accessible to postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students of
finance and development. It will also be an essential reference
source for all professionals and academics working in this area who
want to learn how finance can contribute to the development process
and poverty reduction.
This book critically examines the progress made on macroeconomic
stabilization and financial sector reform in the transition
economies of Central and Eastern Europe. It relates microeconomic
experiences to the broader macroeconomic context of reform, and
emphasises that macro reform is underpinned by micro and
institutional reform, especially in the financial sphere.Key
features include: bank and enterprise restructuring and the
progress towards the resolution of banking and bad debt problems
implications of bank and enterprise restructuring for corporate
governance and company performance an evaluation of bank-enterprise
relationships exchange rates and capital flows, with an analysis of
the capital inflow problem and the performance of fixed exchange
rate regimes in the post-stabilization phase of the transition
detailed surveys of individual firm and bank behaviour and
performance during the reform process. The book will be welcomed by
scholars and practitioners interested in monetary and financial
economics, the economics of transition and comparative economic
systems.
