| Summary |
"This unique work presents the edited workshop papers by expert lawyers from over 20 national central banks, the European Central Bank, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and the UN Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL). Nineteen country reports provide a comprehensive overview of central banks and other institutions responsible for banking supervision and the co-ordination between authorities involved in insolvency procedures. The authors further discuss instruments employed for crisis prevention and resolution and issues arising in the aftermath of a bank failure in the respective jurisdictions. In addition, 12 expert papers discuss issues ranging from specific national experiences to attempts at co-operation and harmonization at regional and international level. The book also includes in annex the text of the UNCITRAL Model Law on Cross-Border Insolvency and the EC Finality Directive."--BOOK JACKET. "This work constitutes an essential addition to every banking and insolvency law library and will be of great value to legal academics and practitioners, bankers, regulators and policymakers."--BOOK JACKET |
