Contemporary Issues in the Post-Crisis Regulatory Landscape by Imad A Moosa Pdf

The book deals with contemporary issues in financial regulation, given the post-crisis regulatory landscape. The major idea put forward is that rampant corruption and fraud in the financial sector provide the main justification for financial regulation. Specific issues that are dealt with include the proposition that the Efficient Market Hypothesis was both a cause and a casualty of the global financial crisis. The book also examines the regulation of remuneration in the financial sector, credit rating agencies and shadow banking. Also considered is financial reform in Iceland and the proposal to move away from fractional reserve banking to a system of sovereign money. A macroeconomic/regulatory issue that is also considered is quantitative easing and the resulting environment of ultra-low interest rates. Contents:The Post-Crisis Regulatory Landscape: An OverviewRegulatory Issues in the Aftermath of the CrisisFinancial Regulation as a Response to Corruption and FraudThe War on RegulationThe Efficient Market Hypothesis as a Weapon of Mass DestructionThe Regulation of Remuneration in the Financial SectorThe Regulation of Shadow BankingThe Regulation of Credit Rating AgenciesThe Regulatory Implications of Quantitative EasingFinancial Reform in IcelandThe Way Forward Readership: Students and researchers who would like to have an indepth understanding of the current issues in financial regulation.

Financial Markets and Financial Crises by R. Glenn Hubbard,National Bureau of Economic Research Pdf

Warnings of the threat of an impending financial crisis are not new, but do we really know what constitutes an actual episode of crisis and how, once begun, it can be prevented from escalating into a full-blown economic collapse? Using both historical and contemporary episodes of breakdowns in financial trade, contributors to this volume draw insights from theory and empirical data, from the experience of closed and open economies worldwide, and from detailed case studies. They explore the susceptibility of American corporations to economic downturns; the origins of banking panics; and the behavior of financial markets during periods of crisis. Sever papers specifically address the current thrift crisis—including a detailed analysis of the over 500 FSLIC-insured thrifts in the southeast—and seriously challenge the value of recent measures aimed at preventing future collapse in that industry. Government economists and policy makers, scholars of industry and banking, and many in the business community will find these timely papers an invaluable reference.
