A Look Back In Time: Analyzing The Success And Value Of The 2014 Amendments To Rule 2a-7 And Reporting On Form N-Cr In Light Of The March 2020 Market Events, Jocelyn Near
Catholic University Law Review
Money market funds have frequently been a target of regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Perhaps the most expansive regulation came as a response to the 2008 financial crisis, in which the Reserve Primary Fund “broke the buck.” The SEC’s misguided 2014 reforms exacerbated the inherent risks of money market funds, including the risk of runs and first mover advantage, particularly with the implementation of Form N-CR. Form N-CR requires a money market fund to publicly report when various events occur, including when a retail or government money market fund’s current net asset value per share deviates downward …

Seattle University Law Review

Ending Litigation And Financial Windfalls On Time-Barred Debts, Marc C. Mcallister
Ending Litigation And Financial Windfalls On Time-Barred Debts, Marc C. Mcallister
Washington and Lee Law Review
A trap for unsophisticated debtors, debt collectors often attempt to collect time-barred debts through written offers to settle those debts for a fraction of what is owed. Debtors typically respond to such offers in one of four ways. First, some debtors simply pay the offered settlement amount, usually 10%–40% of the total outstanding debt, thereby satisfying the debt in full. Second, those who wish to eliminate the debt but cannot pay the entire offered settlement amount will instead make a small payment, unwittingly reviving the statute of limitations on collections and making the entire debt judicially enforceable for several years …
The Chancery Bank Of Delaware: Appraisal Arbitrageurs Expose Need To Further Reform Defective Appraisal Statute, Stanley Onyeador
The Chancery Bank Of Delaware: Appraisal Arbitrageurs Expose Need To Further Reform Defective Appraisal Statute, Stanley Onyeador
Vanderbilt Law Review
A dark pool, a form of Alternative Trading System ("ATS"), is a private securities trading platform that-unlike public exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange-allows participants to execute large block trades with delayed public disclosure. As neither party in a dark market transaction is trading on the public, or "lit," market or knows the identity of its counterparty, dark market trades allow participants to trade anonymously and keep trade strategies from competitors. Further, because dark market trades do not have to be publicly disclosed in real time, the price of a given security will, theoretically, stay relatively stable as …
Keeping Up With The Joneses: A Model Systemic Risk Reporting Regime For The Canadian Hedge Fund Industry, Andrew Mcgarva
Keeping Up With The Joneses: A Model Systemic Risk Reporting Regime For The Canadian Hedge Fund Industry, Andrew Mcgarva
Dalhousie Law Journal
The purpose of this paper is to suggest a regulatory model by which Canadian securities regulators may monitor the systemic risk contributed to by the Canadian hedge fundindustry The bases for this modelare recent regulatory reform initiatives adopted in the U.S. and Europe. There, securities regulators have adopted Form PF and AIFMD, respectively, to monitor the systemic risk contributed to by hedge funds. However, the features of those regimes are not necessarily appropriate for the Canadian industry. The appropriateness ofthe features of Form PFandAIFMD for the Canadian hedge fund industry is evaluated on two criteria: the average industry fund size, …
Competition And Crisis In Mortgage Securitization, Michael Simkovic
Competition And Crisis In Mortgage Securitization, Michael Simkovic
Indiana Law Journal
U.S. policy makers often treat market competition as a panacea. However, in the case of mortgage securitization, policy makers’ faith in competition is misplaced. Competitive mortgage securitization has been tried three times in U.S. history— during the 1880s, the 1920s, and the 2000s—and every time it has collapsed. Most recently, competition between mortgage securitizers led to a race to the bottom on mortgage underwriting standards that ended in the late 2000s financial crisis. This Article provides original evidence that when competition was less intense and securitizers had more buyer power, securitizers acted to monitor mortgage originators and to maintain prudent …

Ec Reforms Of Corporate Governance And Capital Markets Law: Do They Tackle Insiders' Opportunism?, Luca Enriques, Matteo Gatti
Ec Reforms Of Corporate Governance And Capital Markets Law: Do They Tackle Insiders' Opportunism?, Luca Enriques, Matteo Gatti
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Company and capital markets laws are rapidly evolving everywhere: there are few countries around the world where they have not been the subject of reform or where at least a reform agenda has not been devised. There are various reasons for this, both global and local. Among the global (or common) reasons for reform, two at least deserve to be singled out: large-scale market crises or prominent economic scandals, and financial development.

Regulatory Theory And Deposit Insurance Reform, R. Mark Williamson
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. Instead, recognizing that deposit insurance is a centerpiece of the overall regulatory scheme to which any financial institution in the United States is subject, this article is primarily concerned with subjecting this form of bank regulation to analysis based upon general principles of regulatory theory. 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.
