    Banking Law and Financial Regulation in the UK and EU seeks to blend orthodox topics covered within the banking and financial law syllabus, such as sources of banking and financial law, financial markets, financial and banking institutions, financial transactions, and banking and financial insolvency, with a careful analysis of emerging issues and more contemporary topics.

    This advanced-level textbook offers a new format for the study of banking and financial law, placing it within the wider context of economic development. As such, two elements are integral to this new methodology: the rise of techno-banking and digitalisation of the financial sector, and Brexit. Departing from the approaches of more traditional textbooks in this area, the book also takes a comparative approach to UK and EU banking law, highlighting the legal consequences of the UK’s exit from the EU. Aspects of human rights are integrated throughout and current debates and developments around financial crises – the advancement of technological innovations in the banking sector and contemporary topics, such as health crises, energy, and ESG and the environment – is taken into account to provide the reader with the opportunity to develop their own autonomous and broader understanding of the various concepts.

    Banking Law and Financial Regulation in the UK and EU will be a valuable text for students taking advanced undergraduate and postgraduate-level courses in banking law and financial law, as well as practising lawyers, managers and accountants.
