Research Handbook on Global Capital Markets Law

This Research Handbook is a one-stop resource on global capital markets and the laws that regulate them. Focussing primarily on mainstream capital markets, and framing them as an ecosystem in which the market players and regulators must co-exist, the chapters paint a canvas on which key cross-cutting themes are depicted, dissected and discussed. Featuring contributions from leading global experts, the Research Handbook delves into a range of issues including investment products such as equity finance; sustainable finance; fintech; impact investing; and private equity. It also provides analysis on institutional and procedural issues such as large and small companies' capital formation, the roles of institutional shareholders and information providers, and the practices and regulation of financial trading markets. International in scope, this Research Handbook will be of great value to scholars and practitioners in the field of financial law. It will also be a go-to source of information for policy makers in the financial markets sphere.
