Law Reform and Financial Markets addresses how law reform can be used to support strong financial markets and draws on the global financial crisis as a case study.
This edited collection reflects recent developments, including the EU institutional reforms and the Dodd-Frank Act 2010.

This comprehensive book will appeal to academics and postgraduates in the field of financial regulation and in cognate fields including finance and economics, as well as to regulators and policymakers.
