This book explores and explains how finance and law intersect, presenting a multidisciplinary perspective essential for contemporary research and teaching. Francesco De Pascalis analyses how general principles of private and public law are applied within the unique operational dynamics of the financial world.
De Pascalis applies a cross-jurisdictional analysis of legislation and regulation to a wide range of banking and finance literature, providing a comprehensive portrait of private and public operations. Chapters review landmark case law and evaluate core legal principles alongside the specialized norms, codes and regulatory standards that govern modern financial actors. In doing so, De Pascalis demonstrates how the principles underpinning these areas acquire renewed significance. Aligning with innovative paradigms in contemporary financial scholarship, it serves as a launchpad for broader reflections on fields including human rights and financial dispute resolution.
Principles of Law and Finance provides beneficial insights to scholars and students in finance and banking law. Practitioners and policymakers operating within global financial markets can also leverage this analysis of common law and civil law systems to expand their functional knowledge of transnational financial law.
