International Perspectives on Financial Market Supervision

The global financial crisis has sparked a debate over the cause and impact of the crisis. Academics and policymakers are searching for changes in the financial system that can correct any perceived weaknesses in the structure of regulation, the content of regulations, and the coverage of financial instruments and activities. Since the onset of the crisis, numerous proposals have been advanced to reform or amend the current financial system to help restore economic growth. This book addresses the international perspectives on a number of proposals that are being advanced for financial oversight and regulation in the global financial markets and promoting integration and consistency across the various financial structures.
