This book analyzes the emerging asset class of digital assets. When a new asset class originates, researchers try to understand some basic questions: Can digital assets, with the flagship asset bitcoin, really be considered a serious asset class? Since it is possible to trade digital assets, does it make sense to trade or to invest in these assets? How do digital assets compare to traditional asset classes like equities or bonds?After describing basic financial theory and breaking down the digital asset universe, this book provides fundamental knowledge with respect to this young and rising asset class. It focuses on special issues like the application of technical indicators, investment styles, asset pricing and portfolio construction. Furthermore, it offers remarks and links to other traditional asset classes and describes and warns of data issues in digital asset data.

This book focuses on traditional fields of business studies and economics and how digitalization has affected them. This book appeals to business administration, economics, and entrepreneurship scholars and practitioners alike.

This book focuses on traditional fields of business studies and economics and how digitalization has affected them. It provides an overview about the lessons learned from academic research and highlights implications for practitioners. Digitalization has not only changed the ways business administration and economics are taught, but also the substance at the core of the two disciplines. Chapters from expert contributors define and carefully evaluate the developments that have occurred over the last decades. The authors further provide an assessment of how industry branches have adapted and in which form regulators have engaged. Attention is given to the theoretical and empirical findings from recent scholarly literature. Furthermore, the authors provide some novel insights from their own research at the University of Bremen. This book appeals to business administration, economics, and entrepreneurship scholars and practitioners alike.

This open access book describes the most important legal sources and principles of data privacy and data protection in China, Germany and the United States. The authors collected privacy statements from more than 400 crowdsourcing platforms, which allowed them to empirically evaluate their data privacy and data protection practices. The book compares the practices in the three countries and develops empirically-grounded policy recommendations.A profound analysis on workers´ privacy in new forms of work in China, Germany, and the United States. Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Däubler, University of BremenThis is a comprehensive and timely book for legal and business scholars as well as practitioners, especially with the increasingly important role of raw data in machine learning and artificial intelligence.Professor Mingfeng Lin, Georgia Institute of Technology

The digital economy is reinvigorating regulatory competition, yet little is known about which rules and jurisdictions can effectively bind companies nor what competitive motivations underlie certain rules.

The digital economy is reinvigorating regulatory competition, yet little is known about which rules and jurisdictions can effectively bind companies nor what competitive motivations underlie certain rules. In addition to purely economic motives, legislators are now also driving the pursuit of digital sovereignty and the enforcement of social values in digital spaces. It also remains unclear what regulatory weight the self-regulation of private companies has in multi-level governance systems. This book examines regulatory competition in the three main pillars of digital markets: artificial intelligence, data, and platforms. It brings together legal scholars, economists and information systems experts, providing relevant examples and structured analysis of the aims and outcomes of regulatory competition in the digital economy.“A timely exploration of the balancing acts regulators must perform to manage private power in a globalized digital economy. Essential for understanding the intersection of law, economics, and technology in the contemporary digital ecosystem.”Jens Frankenreiter, Associate Professor of Law, Washington University“The book by Denga and Hornuf provides a comprehensive and timely exploration of the intricate regulatory challenges posed by big data, artificial intelligence, and platforms in the Digital Single Market. If offers critical insights for policymakers, scholars, and businesses navigating this evolving landscape.”Philipp Hacker, Professor for Law and Ethics of the Digital Society, European University Viadrin“Artificial Intelligence is fundamentally disrupting how we enable economic growth and how we regulate fair competition. Luckily, Denga and Hornuf provide a detailed and comprehensive overview of the thorniest and most complex regulatory issues while at the same time offering thoughtful and feasible solutions.  "Regulatory Competition in the Digital Economy" is a treasure trove for anyone interested in market regulation, fair competition, consumer protection, and geopolitical questions.”Sandra Wachter, Professor of Technology and Regulation, Oxford Internet Institute
