Reviews

Overall, this collection of essays proves to be an incredibly useful reference ... The different authors of these chapters represent a good combination of backgrounds (academics, practitioners, regulators) and expertise (law, economics, finance), which is useful when dealing with an area of law and regulation that is intrinsically multidisciplinary. ... It is of course an essential reference for researchers at all levels engaged with this area of law, regulation and policy. I believe some chapters of this book will also be useful to practitioners and regulators.
