Banking Law (private Transactions And Regulatory Frameworks)

Modern Banking Law and Regulation

Banking regulation and the legal framework governing bank-customer relationships came under intense scrutiny following the global financial crisis of 2007–2009. More than a decade on, regulatory reforms in the UK, EU, and internationally have reshaped the banking sector’s structure, business models, and governance.

This authoritative and accessible text provides a comprehensive analysis of contemporary banking law and regulation, with a critical assessment of its effectiveness and underlying principles. While the book’s primary focus is on UK law and practice, it also examines relevant EU institutions and legislation, such as the European Banking Union and the supervisory role of the European Central Bank.

Key topics include:

• The evolving regulation of bank corporate governance

• Executive remuneration policies

• The promises and challenges of FinTech and RegTech

• The legal impact of Brexit on UK financial services

Designed to be both detailed and accessible, the book includes user-friendly features such as a glossary of terms and practice questions at the end of each chapter to support independent learning.
