Finance for Professionals

Why should banks be bailed out?Because when banks fail, the consequences can extend far beyond their shareholders and creditors, disrupting lending, confidence, and the wider economy.Prudential regulation seeks to reduce both the likelihood and the economic cost of such failures by requiring banks to maintain adequate capital and liquidity, manage their risks prudently, and prepare for recovery or orderly resolution. But how much capital and liquidity is enough to avoid a bailout?This handbook provides a comprehensive and practical guide to this question. With a particular focus on the European Union's implementation of the final Basel III reforms-often referred to as Basel IV-the book explains the regulatory framework established through CRR3 and CRD VI. It examines not only what the rules require, but also the economic rationale and policy objectives underlying them.Combining clear explanations with worked examples and step-by-step calculations, the book covers the foundations of banking and risk; own funds and eligible liabilities; credit, market, counterparty credit, CVA, and operational risk; standardised and internal-model approaches; the leverage ratio; capital buffers; liquidity requirements; MREL and TLAC; Pillar 3 disclosures; and the practical calculation and reporting of regulatory requirements. It also considers international differences and emerging issues, including cryptoassets and climate-related risks.Written for banking and consulting professionals, this book is a concise and user-friendly resource on the latest EU prudential framework. It is also suitable for students who are interested in these topics. It provides a reliable, practical reference on prudential requirements.

Ius Gentium: Comparative Perspectives on Law and Justice

This seminal volume provides a rigorous doctrinal analysis of contemporary slavery through the lens of criminal law and legal dogmatics. It addresses the modern paradox of universal prohibition coexisting with thriving exploitation, offering a robust instrument for law interpretation in both domestic and international courts.
The treatise is organized into four sections. Section I establishes conceptual foundations, diagnosing slavery as an organic product of structural vulnerability within the global neoliberal model rather than a historical anomaly. It further provides a profound constitutionalist perspective on human dignity, a concept essential for a comprehensive understanding of slavery.
Section II maps international standards, tracing the evolution of Article 4 of the ECHR and ILO benchmarks. It elucidates the critical shift from legal ownership to the de facto exercise of powers attaching to ownership, maintaining the severity threshold required to distinguish human rights violations from mere labour malpractice.
A cornerstone of the work is the Anti-Slavery Model Legislation (The Guide to Domestic Legislation) in Section III. This template defines and provides penal frameworks for ten stand-alone forms of exploitation, including slavery, servitude, and forced labour. This section also offers comparative analyses of European and South American legal landscapes.
Section IV addresses institutions of heightened criminal relevance, including the non-punishment provision for victims, complexities in global supply chains, and the challenges of “borderless” criminal jurisdiction. It tackles corporate “ubiquity” and “forum shopping,” proposing models to ensure accountability in fragmented productive networks.
By assembling preeminent legal scholars and practitioners, this book transcends sociological description to provide the dogmatic precision required to narrow the space of impunity. It serves as an indispensable resource for understanding how diverse jurisdictions regulate the most heinous affronts to human freedom and legal personality.

A Comparative Law Perspective

Modern Slavery and Criminal Law

This book explores the theoretical foundations and practical implications of adopting a system of binding judicial precedents in civil law and mixed jurisdictions. Drawing from the author’s dual background in Latin American and European legal traditions, the book offers a groundbreaking framework for understanding precedents not merely as persuasive sources but as normative structures with formal binding authority. Written by Hermes Zaneti Jr., a renowned scholar and public prosecutor, this work emerges from a comparative constitutionalist perspective and engages deeply with the theory of Luigi Ferrajoli. It argues that the rise of stare decisis in hybrid systems like Brazil reflects both historical contingencies and a normative evolution toward legal certainty, equality, and rational adjudication. The book introduces the notion of normative precedents and classifies their binding force in three degrees, proposing an operational methodology for judges and courts to apply precedents while respecting constitutional principles such as judicial independence and the separation of powers. This sixth, revised edition includes updated doctrinal discussions, detailed comparative analysis, and a critical reflection on the Brazilian Code of Civil Procedure (2015) and the constitutional role of the judiciary in rights protection. With its robust combination of legal theory, dogmatic analysis, and historical development, this book provides scholars, judges, and advanced students with a comprehensive model for integrating precedent into constitutional democracies without sacrificing fundamental guarantees. Ideal for academics in comparative constitutional law, legal theory, and procedural law, The Binding Value of Precedents contributes to global debates on the normative role of precedent, judicial discretion, and the epistemology of legal interpretation in post-formalist legal systems.

Global Challenges in the Environmental Humanities

This open access edited volume acknowledges that when judges adjudicate climate change issues, their decisions are shaped by far more than positive law. Adopting a pluriversal, socio-legal and multidisciplinary approach, chapters engage with an array of 'extra-legal' factors that inform what happens inside courtrooms, of relevance for climate action more broadly. These factors include judges' psychology; who is appointed as a judge and how that process is designed; legal culture and philosophy; who litigates and how litigation strategies are designed; literature; counter-hegemonic knowledge production; political ecology; climate anxiety; and climate science. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by Newcastle Law School (United Kingdom), the Department of Land Economy, Cambridge and Queens' College, Cambridge.

This volume provides a comprehensive legal examination of BIMSTEC’s evolving institutional framework, critically analyzing its role in fostering regional cooperation and partnership in alignment with SDG17. The book explores how legal frameworks can serve as mechanisms for strengthening regional integration, enhancing policy coherence, and promoting multi-stakeholder partnerships across BIMSTEC member states. By engaging with legal scholarship and comparative regional models, it evaluates how BIMSTEC can facilitate cross-border trade, investment, and regulatory harmonisation to create a more interconnected and resilient economic bloc. The chapters collectively address the legal dimensions of SDG 17 by examining BIMSTEC’s potential in fostering public-private partnerships, improving regional governance structures, and establishing inclusive legal frameworks for sustainable development. Key themes include legal mechanisms for trade and investment integration, transnational crime cooperation, refugee governance, environmental stewardship, etc. The volume further delves into sector-specific legal reforms that can enhance institutional collaboration and knowledge-sharing within the BIMSTEC framework, drawing lessons from other regional organizations such as ASEAN and the EU.
With contributions from leading legal scholars, policymakers, and jurists, this book is an essential resource for those engaged in international law, regional governance, and sustainable development. By centering its analysis on SDG 17, it offers actionable legal insights into how BIMSTEC can strengthen institutional partnerships, advance collective decision-making, and reinforce the legal infrastructure necessary for achieving long-term regional cooperation.

Understanding Social Enterprise Law: The UK Experience

Oxford Handbooks

The Oxford Handbook of Global Animal Law establishes the field of global animal law (GAL). GAL engages with the legal status and legal protection of animals (both as individuals and species) in today's globalized world. GAL refers both to the fragmented body of law that is relevant to animals in a global context and to the production of scholarly literature that builds upon the recognition of this law to discern connections and causations, influences and deterrents. GAL as scholarship is responsive to the distinctive and interlinked problems the globalized world poses for animals and seeks to improve animal welfare, rights, and species conservation through a web of transnational, international, regional, domestic, local, customary, religious, and indigenous forms of normativity. Current human-animal relations, especially human dominance over, exploitation, and extermination of animals, are not only causing mass animal suffering, misery, and death on a global scale, but are also associated with ecological, social, and public health pressures that adversely affect humans and the entire planet. It is because of the global and interconnected nature of these issues that a global law approach is needed. The formation of a global animal law is notably warranted as a response to economic and cultural globalization, as a contribution to global sustainable development, and as an imperative of global justice. This Handbook lays out GAL's multidisciplinary foundations; delineates key concepts, principles, and actors shaping the field; maps the contours and features of emerging global animal law across a range of existing legal regimes (such as environmental, food, health, and human rights law); identifies its various legal sources on the level of international, regional, and domestic law (facilitated through country reports from all over the world); deals with the implementation and enforcement of GAL, with attention to procedural aspects; and engages a variety of voices and perspectives to explore new horizons and envision, together, the future of a truly global animal law.

Artificial Intelligence and the Rule of Law

This book provides a stinging critique of the regulatory underpinnings of the EU AI Act, delivering a trenchant criticism and asserting that there is no shortage of reasons for enduring skepticism. This book uncovers the multifaceted architecture underlying both the EU AI Act and the General-Purpose AI Code of Practice, revealing its technological, social, philosophical, and legal shortcomings. Chapters focusing on doctrinal, social, technological, philosophical, historical, and economic stances are carefully paired with fruitful discussions about bespoke standards for addressing the ever-evolving issue of algorithmic decision-making, such as enhanced safety, protection of fundamental rights, sustainability of the rule of law, and redress of algorithmic wrongs.

The contemporary significance of the subject “Social Rights, Inequalities and Affirmative Action” is indisputable. In periods of social polarization, conflict and crisis, it is imperative that the obligation of our societies to protect and promote social rights is addressed and acknowledged. It is also necessary to recognize the way in which social rights are jeopardized by inequalities that impede the cultivation of robust social relationships and to document instances of the implementation of affirmative actions in this scenario. The aims of this work are as follows: firstly, to establish general topics (part I); secondly, to undertake more specific investigations within the primary topic (part II); and thirdly, to address the challenges posed by the technological transition currently taking place in society, which has significant consequences for social rights, (in)equality, and affirmative action (part III). The study is organized into three sections corresponding to these targets. For the purposes of this study, the analysis will commence, in the Part I of this book, at the genesis of the debates, as outlined in the chapter concerning the old and the new forms of racism. This contribution is followed by a chapter on the growing recognition of intersectional discrimination in European and global human rights frameworks and by another on structural discrimination and the function of the law against unjust enrichment. To further explore and expand upon the subjects addressed in the preceding chapters, the final chapter of Part I of this book delves into the topic of affirmative action in the United States. The second part of this work is dedicated primarily to specific forms of affirmative action, thereby deepening the discussion initiated in the first part of this book. The initial topic examines the way in which the pandemic has impacted specific social groups and led to the emergence of health disparities in the UK. The subsequent chapter is devoted to an examination of the alterations in the benefits of minimum income support in Brazil in recent years. The fourth chapter undertakes a detailed investigation of a specific affirmative action program for children and adolescents with the objective of reducing violence in urban areas. The final chapter conducts an analysis of ageing, public policies and inclusion in Brazil. The third and final section is dedicated to an examination of the challenges faced by our technological societies. The field of “Social Rights, Inequalities and Affirmative Action” is set to be impacted by the regulation of artificial intelligence, the increasing digitalization of activities, and the development of new tools designed to enhance the efficiency of the social state. The initial chapter of the concluding section deals with the regulation of artificial intelligence in Brazil and the impacts of neurotechnology. The second study examines conservative digitalization and structural inequalities in Latin American information societies, while the final study focuses on the emergence of the social digital state and the use of instruments that produce inequality and discrimination.
