The Third Edition of Financial Regulation: Law and Policy continues
to offer students and faculty an innovative and accessible
introduction to the field. Financial regulation has long been at
the intersection of technological innovation, market forces, and
the political economy, punctuated from time to time by financial
and economic crises. Since the turn of the millennium, we have seen
these pressures intensify and multiply. We have lived through the
most systemic Financial Crisis in 70 years, a major shift in
regulatory design, the digital transformation of the economy,
including the financial sector, and a worldwide Pandemic with still
uncertain economic impact, playing out against an increasingly
divided and shifting political landscape. The Third Edition has
been updated to keep pace with all of these changes. You will find
extensive discussions of fintech, climate change, and racial
equality across the Third Edition, as these topics move from the
periphery to the center of the regulatory agenda. The Third Edition
also adds a stand-alone Chapter on supervision, an important topic
that we expect will be receiving more academic research and
attention, as well as an expanded Chapter on enforcement. Like the
Second Edition, the Third Edition analyzes and compares the market
and regulatory architecture of the entire U.S. financial sector,
from banks, insurance companies, and broker-dealers, to asset
managers, fintech companies of many types, complex financial
conglomerates, and government-sponsored enterprises. The Third
Edition explores a range of financial activities, including
consumer finance and investment, digital and traditional payment
systems, securitization, short-term wholesale funding, money
markets, and derivatives. Throughout the book, the authors note the
cross-border implications of U.S. rules, and compare, where
appropriate, the U.S. financial regulatory framework and policy
choices to those in other places around the globe, especially the
UK and the European Union.
This law school casebook was developed by a team of professors at
Harvard Law School to introduce students with little or no
quantitative background to the basic analytical techniques that
attorneys need to master to represent their clients effectively.
This casebook presents clear explanations of decision analysis,
games and information, contracting, accounting, finance,
microeconomics, economic analysis of the law, fundamentals of
statistics, and multiple regression analysis. References and
examples have been thoroughly updated for this 3rd edition, and
exposition of a number of key topics has been reworked to reflect
insights gained from teaching these topics using the 1st edition to
many hundreds of Harvard Law students over the past decade.
