The book The Law of Securitisations: From Crises to Techno-sustainability provides a full and detailed account of the EU legislation in the area of structured finance with the new legal rules dissected and discussed in their full extent. Securitisation transactions have been identified in the literature among the main reasons for the 2007–2008 financial crisis, alongside derivative contracts. More than a decade later, the EU legislature passed in 2017 a legal framework comprehensively disciplining the area of securitisations in the EU. On such a background the main purpose of the book is to discuss and analyse, in a holistic way, both the rationale behind the securitisations as financial transactions and their main players (e.g. originators, SPVs and credit rating agencies) and their "ESG" (Environmental, Social and Governance) challenges, particularly the recent regulation passed in the EU during the 2020–2021 global pandemic. The goal of this legal analysis is to identify and clarify the entire legal process of securitisations, as a result of the new EU legislation, as well as duties, responsibilities and practices incumbent on the main players. Furthermore, the monograph is also concerned with the new challenges facing financial markets and their regulation: the new concept of sustainability and the development of technology. In this scenario, there is a blend of financial issues, new environmental challenges and, ultimately, the role human beings are expected to play, also from a social justice perspective. Adopting not just doctrinal methodology but also comparative (from a private law perspective) and interdisciplinary (regulatory and law and economics), the authors also include a discussion of the main literature which has blossomed over the last two decades on structured finance transactions, particularly the literature that unveiled, a decade ago, the concept of shadow banking. This book will be one of the first to focus on the new EU Securitisation Regulation and will be of interest to academics, students and practitioners of financial law.

This book, through the lens of interdisciplinary legal analysis, draws a subtle balance between bioethics and financial regulation, with the latter playing an unexpectedly crucial role in the way life may potentially be governed. The legal topic of human preservation or cryoconservation was initially developed in the United States in the case of Donaldson v. van de Kamp. More recently, the subject arose in Europe as a result of a decision of the High Court, Family Division, London. This new theme of cryoconservation has unfolded through multifaceted forms, including its impact on regulation. In an area that may, at least prima facie, be regarded as belonging to the traditional realm of medical law, the findings presented here suggest that its potential has strong economic implications. The work argues that it is necessary also to look at this subject from a more interdisciplinary perspective, drawing a fil rouge between two otherwise seemingly opposing areas of law: medical law and financial regulation. The legal framework draws on the Anglo-American, and the United Kingdom in particular, along with civil law analysis from Italy. The work will be of interest to researchers and academics in the areas of medical law, legal philosophy, financial law, property law and insurance law.

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.

Contract law and international trade are two significant and distinct areas of legal practice that often intersect. While rooted in the standard contract law syllabus, this comprehensive advanced textbook seeks to examine the interaction between contract law rules and international trade regulation. It blends in-depth discussion of the most important traditional legal concepts in both these areas of the law with a careful analysis of emerging issues and more contemporary topics, such as digital contracting, trade in services, and the Europeanisation of contract law at the level of the European Union.Facilitating engagement with the subject matter in a way that bridges foundational legal principles and contemporary debates, the authors provide a rigorous intellectual analysis of the law, where both precedents and applicable legislation are discussed critically. A comparative analysis is offered between English common law, which is used as the constant yardstick, and its EU counterpart. Focusing on key themes such as globalisation, IT and digitalisation, ESG and sustainability, the Covid-19 pandemic, Brexit and human rights, this book allows readers to deepen their knowledge and understanding of contract law and international trade regulation while developing an appreciation of the contemporary relevance of these areas of the law and their challenges.Contract Law and International Trade Regulation will be a valuable text for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate law students.
