The European Aspects Of Global Financial Developments, Virag Ilona Blazsek
The Journal of Business, Entrepreneurship & the Law
What is the position of Europe—and specifically the European Union (EU)—on the world map of global finances in 2017? This comment seeks to answer this question by focusing on three key issues.

Second, it considers the role of the international credit rating agencies and asks why Europe does not have a large rating agency of its own.

Regulation By Hypothetical, Mehrsa Baradaran
Vanderbilt Law Review
A new paradigm is afoot in banking regulation-and it involves a turn toward the more speculative.

Regulatory Theory And Deposit Insurance Reform, R. Mark Williamson
Cleveland State Law Review
The purpose of this article, however, is not to summarize the maze of federal and state banking regulation.

This article is less concerned with the details of banking law than it is with using regulatory to shape policy guidelines for the coming process of deposit insurance reform.
