Global Developments in Central Bank Digital Currency

Routledge Critical Studies in Finance and Stability

The bank failures of the early 2020s challenged the view that the financial reforms implemented after the 2007-2009 financial crisis had strengthened the robustness of the financial system.Despite the commonly held belief that measures such as the Basel framework and Dodd Frank Act had provided the financial sector with an effective shield against disruption, this book argues that the failure of these reforms to prevent further financial crises was not inevitable. The book contextualizes the long history of financial instability, elucidating the features of capitalism's current phase that make it so prone to financial crises, and highlighting other periods (notably the post-war period) characterized by remarkable stability. The book draws on post-Keynesian analyses of the evolution of capitalism and the endogenous instability of capitalist economies - by Minsky in particular - and incorporates insights from French regulatory theory. From this perspective, financial crises are not the result of exogenous deviant behaviors on the part of ill-intentioned or incompetent agents but the result of the normal functioning of capitalist economies. In this respect, the 2007-2009 crisis and the bank failures of 2023 are manifestations of this endogenous financial instability. Preventing their resurgence requires an alternative understanding of financial instability, one that interrogates the intrinsic dynamics of the financial system, engages in a critical examination of extant regulatory frameworks, questions the effectiveness of resolution mechanisms, and considers the increasingly urgent climate-related financial risks.This book will be of interest to researchers working on issues of financial instability and regulation as well as money and banking more broadly.

European Yearbook of International Economic Law

The financial crime landscape is rapidly evolving, and so too have government responses over the past decade. This book, a product of the Financial Integrity Hub (FIH), critically examines global vulnerabilities and proposes innovative solutions to combat illicit activities. It addresses the rising sophistication of financial crimes, fuelled by technological advances, globalisation, human fallibility, and regulatory gaps.
The book highlights the systemic nature of financial crime, connecting areas such as AML leadership challenges, exploitation of the gaming sector, AI in crime detection, wildlife trafficking financing, and opportunities in public-private and private-private information sharing. It explores how criminal activity can shift to exploit weaknesses in global systems, from corruption and godfatherism to state capture, underscoring the need for proactivity, along with suitable legal frameworks and enforcement.
Chapters explore the ethical dimensions of financial crime, including the role of professional facilitators, and highlight gaps in current legal frameworks, advocating stronger whistleblower protections, transparency in beneficial ownership, and adaptable regulations.
Through case studies and analysis, this book equips practitioners, policymakers, and academics with the knowledge to better prevent, detect, and mitigate financial crime, contributing to a more secure, transparent global financial system. It is essential reading for professionals across finance, law enforcement, regulation, and academia seeking to understand and mitigate financial crime risks.

A Global Blueprint for the Bank of Tomorrow

The Future of Banking

There is no lack of hype around artificial intelligence. We have only begun to scratch the surface of what this powerful technology can do. While tech and financial services become more intertwined, cutting through the noise has become more difficult but also more crucial.


As a technology, AI is essential to advancing innovation, to creating efficiencies, and enhancing productivity while capturing opportunities by both incumbent financial institutions as well as fintechs. But it also comes with risks and potential for biases and disinformation, that can deepen inequalities and erode trust in our society. Responsible innovation must become part of our DNA and not as an afterthought.


This book provides a tailored overview of what AI specifically means for financial services, a highly regulated yet also disrupted industry. It investigates the current state of AI applications in financial services today along with the state of funding and partnerships between tech and banking industries. It also examines the key pillars of responsible AI and the importance of keeping humans in the loop. The book takes a deep dive into the use cases in the financial services industry, the challenges and opportunities, and the fragmented regulatory landscape. How can we effectively assess risks, and balance innovation and customer centricity with trust in AI in financial services? Can smaller organizations reap the benefits of the technology? How can institutions deploy AI responsibly and securely, and promote a fairer and more equitable future for more people? While data is about bits and bytes, the realities of AI is very much human. This book will help spark dialogue and collaboration as we journey into the future.

Insights and Strategies for Women's Financial Resilience

Gender and Global Economic Stability, Volume II

The strange and contested evolution of the management of banking riskBanks in America are private institutions with private shareholders, boards of directors, profit motives, customers, and competitors. And yet the public plays a key role in deciding what risks are taken as well as how, when, and to what end. Public-private negotiations over financial governance has evolved into an essential ecosystem of banking risk management. In Private Finance, Public Power, Peter Conti-Brown and Sean Vanatta offer a new history of finance and public policy in the United States by examining the idiosyncratic way the nation manages financial risk across the public-private divide. Covering two centuries, from the founding of the Republic to the early 1980s, Conti-Brown and Vanatta describe the often-contested, sometimes chaotic, engagement of bankers, politicians, bureaucrats, and others in the overlapping spaces of the public-private system of bank supervision. Conti-Brown and Vanatta trace the different supervisory frameworks that evolved over time, from the imposition of private liability on bank shareholders to the development of the central bank to the creation of federal deposit insurance. Negotiations took place at federal and state levels, but, over time, the federal government assumed most of the responsibility for managing financial risk. Moreover, federal supervisory officials began to undertake more varied tasks, including monitoring racial discrimination and managing financial concentration. Conti-Brown and Vanatta introduce a diverse cast of characters-bankers, politicians, bureaucrats, and others-and show how they navigated two hundred years of financial panics, scandals, and crises to build the system that structures modern America's banking system.

Private Finance, Public Power

This handbook provides an essential reference to the pivotal and dynamic field of business and human rights from an African perspective. Grounded in human rights frameworks, it presents the status quo of the prevailing fundamental and intersectional issues related to business and human rights regulation in Africa. The handbook covers topics such as land and institutional governance, corporate social responsibility, and gender issues as some of the main themes and offers practical regulatory solutions based on doctrinal, empirical, and comparative methods. Exploring the intersection of business and human rights deepens our understanding of the legal, policy, &nbsp;and regulatory challenges involved and clarifies how and to what extent human rights concerns are addressed in Africa, a continent often marked by human rights violations by multinational corporations. It is hoped that the solutions provided here will help advance policy, regulatory, and legal developments related to business and human rights in Africa.

EBI Studies in Banking and Capital Markets Law

<div>This book examines how the European bank recovery and resolution framework shapes bank governance and decision¿making, and how a clear and credible institutional regime for bank failure can strengthen banks’ resilience. It analyses the effects of the current resolution framework on bank governance by focusing on the ex¿ante expectations it creates for bank decision¿makers. Addressing a gap in the literature, the book shows how the new resolution regime for ailing banks has the potential to improve both the quality of bank governance and institutional resilience. However, the analysis reveals that such a potential is not fully exploited because of the complexity and the lack of credibility of the resolution framework. Finally, it identifies areas for further regulatory intervention, particularly in fine¿tuning debt governance within the resolution framework, with a view to further enhancing bank governance. The book will be of interest to scholars, instructors, and policymakers working in financial regulation, banking regulation, and financial law.</div>

The Financial Technology Revolution

Banking and finance has emerged as a leading sector of the Indian economy. Notwithstanding this, due to its technical nature, the sector has by and large remained outside the purview of the uninitiated readers. The Routledge Handbook of Indian Banking and Finance is devoted to analytical accounts of various aspects of Indian banking and finance and tries to address this vacuum.Written in non-technical language by prominent academics and industry experts, each chapter explores the basic tenets and current challenges within Indian banking and finance across three core areas: institutions, markets, and regulation. Institutions cover issues relating to commercial banks, co-operative banks, technological aspects of banking, mutual funds, insurance, or financial inclusion. Various markets are covered as well, and these include equity, bond, commodities, private equity, forex, money, real estate finance, or alternative assets. The regulatory section addresses the regulation of banking, the risk management practices and norms in the banking sector, insurance, pension funds, the securities market, and the role of government in finance. The chapters provide a comprehensive narrative tracing the evolutionary chronicle of a particular segment of the financial sector while delving into current issues and speculating on the shape of things to come.Offering comprehensive coverage, this book will be a go-to resource for beginners and specialists alike. It will be of interest to those working with corporate finance, banking, finance, economics, business and industry, management and marketing, and banking- and finance-related law.

Trends and Perspectives in International Politics

In a more contentious world economy, where trade and finance are increasingly interlinked with economic security and geopolitical considerations, questions arise about the underpinnings of the US dollar's global leadership. For decades, the US dollar has reigned supreme, serving as a powerful tool of US foreign policy. However, history shows that currency dominance can shift with global power dynamics. Will China or another power rise to challenge the US-led system? Will the international monetary system experience a process of fragmentation, or will a new global order emerge? Will financial technology ease such a change? This book delves into the intricate web of how three forces - economic dislocation, evolving geopolitical relations and technology - could potentially foster transformations in the international monetary system. Adopting a multidisciplinary lens, it analyses the strategic elements that might compel major international powers to instigate change or solidify the current equilibrium. While there are no definitive answers on the future, the book provides readers with the key tools to understand the major factors influencing possible changes in the international finance system.
