John Pineda Galarza
El pacto comisorio se encuentra prohibido en España, no obstante se promulgó el Real Decreto 5/005, el cual recoge al pacto marciano como una excepción a la prohibición del pacto comisorio. En ese contexto, se hizo un análisis económico comparativo sobre la aceptación del pacto comisorio en el sistema peruano y en su modalidad marciana española.

The Legal Relationship Between The Bank And Its Safe Deposit Customer, Richard A. Lord
The Legal Relationship Between The Bank And Its Safe Deposit Customer, Richard A. Lord
Richard A. Lord
Today in the United States, virtually every commercial bank makes safe deposit services available for a small fee, either through a department of the bank or through a subsidiary or affiliated safe deposit company. Never before has the demand for safe deposit services been so great. More than ever before, Americans are turning to safe deposit companies and bank safe deposit vaults for the storage of their assets. This increased demand has caused increased concern among legislators and bankers about whether to regulate further the day-to-day affairs of the safe deposit business. Increased use of safe deposit vaults and boxes …
The Omnibus Clause Of U.C.C. Section 4-303(1)(D): A Holder's Sword Or A Payor's Shield?, Charles C. Lewis
The Omnibus Clause Of U.C.C. Section 4-303(1)(D): A Holder's Sword Or A Payor's Shield?, Charles C. Lewis
Charles C. Lewis
In the years after the promulgation of the 1952 official text, particularly as the New York Law Revision Commission studied it, and as more and more states either studied the Code for enactment or actually enacted it during the late 1950's and early 1960's, law professors, practicing attorneys and bank attorneys commented on each provision of it. Section 4-303(1)(d) and its omnibus clause did not escape this scrutiny. Many of the commentators, however, did no more than describe the purpose of section 4-303's priority rules, point out that section 4-213(1)(c), a remarkably similar section in the Code, did not contain …
Hedge Funds & Poison Pills: Can Typical Hedge Fund Activism Really Be Considered A Reasonable Threat Under Unocal?, Vincent V. Hilldrup
Hedge Funds & Poison Pills: Can Typical Hedge Fund Activism Really Be Considered A Reasonable Threat Under Unocal?, Vincent V. Hilldrup
Vincent V. Hilldrup
At a time when hedge fund returns have been stagnating and failing to meet expectations in the period from 2004-2007, they have also attracted significant amounts of capital as investors have eagerly sought to secure above market returns.1 Pressured to perform in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, hedge funds have turned to shareholder activism as a means of maximizing profits and increasing their returns on investment, seeking to influence corporate policy and, if necessary, hold underperforming managers accountable. With significant amounts of funds available at their disposal, they have the means to pressure management and directly influence corporate …

China’S Rare Earths Export Quotas: Out Of The China-Raw Materials Gate, But Past The Wto’S Finish Line?, Han-Wei Liu, John Maughan
China’S Rare Earths Export Quotas: Out Of The China-Raw Materials Gate, But Past The Wto’S Finish Line?, Han-Wei Liu, John Maughan
Han-Wei Liu
Several recent studies have discussed the ramifications of the China – Raw Materials case for China’s rare earths. However, none of these studies has conducted a thorough investigation of China’s current export quota regime for rare earths or how it might stand up under WTO rules, assuming that it would be treated the same. This article makes no such assumption, investigating China’s export quota regime for rare earths as it stands in early June 2012. The regime is somewhat improved over that applied during the Raw Materials case and could allow a more favorable WTO ruling. However, if General Agreement …

51 % Fdi In Multi Brand Retail: After The Inevitable, Maurya Vijay Chandra
Maurya Vijay Chandra
The government has finally shown its resoluteness. The Indian market is now open for the investment in multi brand retail. The immediate reactions of various stakeholders are along expected lines. The left is afraid of the farmers being armtwisted in the long run; the industry is happy; the government basking in the glory of having overcome its "policy paralysis" and the political opponents have reasons to celebrate as they have unique "opt-in" leverage.

Toward A Legal Theory Of Finance, Katharina Pistor
Toward A Legal Theory Of Finance, Katharina Pistor
Katharina Pistor
This paper develops the building blocks for a legal theory of finance. LTF holds that financial markets are legally constructed and as such occupy an essentially hybrid place between state and market, public and private. At the same time, financial markets exhibit dynamics that frequently put them in direct tension with commitments enshrined in law or contracts. This is the case especially in times of financial crises when the full enforcement of legal commitments would result in the self-destruction of the financial system. This law-finance paradox tends to be resolved by suspending the full force of law where the survival …
Narrowing The Accountability Gap: Toward A New Foreign Investor Accountability Mechanism, David Hunter, Natalie L. Bridgeman
Narrowing The Accountability Gap: Toward A New Foreign Investor Accountability Mechanism, David Hunter, Natalie L. Bridgeman
David B. Hunter
An ever-increasing number of standards, guidelines, principles, norms, and best practices have been adopted to address the environmental and social impacts of multinational enterprises (MNEs). This increase in standards and norms corresponds to a rise in MNE sensitivity to the environmental and social impacts that their activities have on local communities in developing countries. These standards and norms are considered voluntary by definition because they are typically not state-sponsored or the product of public regulation. They fill a normative gap located between the state-centered focus of international law and the often inadequate or unenforced standards of the developing country hosts …

Mortgage Securitization 666: The Crime That Took Place - Jpmorgan Chase And Its Wamu Customers, Symphony Music
Symphony Music
This description of the crime that Chase participates in as it proceeds with its foreclosure activities is necessary because the banking industry is misleading the judicial system about important financial aspects of today’s home loan mortgages. This is an initial attempt to describe the crime, including references to La Cosa Nostra and the crime families.
Towards A New Transition Economics, Katharina Pistor
Towards A New Transition Economics, Katharina Pistor
Katharina Pistor
In these brief comments I take issue with the thesis expressed in Konstantin Sonin’s conference review that economic transition is a thing of the past. To the contrary, I argue that it has only just begun and so has the process of rethinking the economic theories and models that have framed the subfield of transition economics. Specifically, I point out that the many surprises economists have encountered when confronted with the actual results of the transition process reveal deeper flaws in the analytical framework that informs their analyses and policy prescriptions. If protecting theories and models is of first order …

Product Due Diligence And The Suitability Of Minibonds: Taking The Benefit Of Hindsight, Christopher Chao-Hung Chen
Product Due Diligence And The Suitability Of Minibonds: Taking The Benefit Of Hindsight, Christopher Chao-Hung Chen
Christopher Chao-hung Chen
This article focuses on some problems arising from applying the product due diligence requirement of the suitability rule to complex financial products. The article draws several conclusions. First, the ‘not unsuitable’ test should be adopted to reduce legal uncertainty. Second, the comparative risk approach is a better choice in assessing the suitability of investment products. However, there must be further elaboration of the classification of product risk. Third, there must be a balance between risk and return to avoid risk mismatches in product design. Fourth, what have been termed minibonds raise the problem of documentation suitability. Though it is difficult …
In Re Sigma Finance Corporation (In Administrative Receivership) And In Re The Insolvency Act 1986 [2009] Uksc 2 (29 Oct 09): Commentary, Chao-Hung Christopher Chen
In Re Sigma Finance Corporation (In Administrative Receivership) And In Re The Insolvency Act 1986 [2009] Uksc 2 (29 Oct 09): Commentary, Chao-Hung Christopher Chen
Christopher Chao-hung CHEN
The case of Sigma Finance Corp was about the priority of payment under a Security Trust Deed for a structured investment vehicle (SIV). In essence, the key issue in the case was about whether debts due within the ‘realisation period’ after the occurrence of an ‘enforcement event’ should be paid ahead of other shortterm creditors.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau: Financial Regulation For The 21st Century
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau: Financial Regulation For The 21st Century
Patricia A. McCoy
After existing regulatory systems failed to prevent the recent financial crisis, Congress passed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, a sweeping reform designed to alleviate the crisis and prevent its recurrence. Out of this Act, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was born. This new agency is charged with making markets for consumer financial products and services work for Americans, a task that was previously spread out among seven different federal agencies with varying priorities. This Article describes, with a series of concrete case studies, four key principles that have guided the Bureau as it strives to fulfill …

Baltimore After The War Of 1812: Where Robert Mills Met His Waterloo And When James A. Buchanan Broke The Bank, Garrett Power
Baltimore After The War Of 1812: Where Robert Mills Met His Waterloo And When James A. Buchanan Broke The Bank, Garrett Power
Garrett Power
In 1815 Baltimore City was boom town. Its militiamen had repulsed the British sea invasion and presaged an end to the War of 1812. Napoleon’s defeat at Waterloo in 1815 signaled an end to European wars. Freedom of the seas had been restored. The Baltimore “Clipper” was the best sailing ship on the ocean. Baltimore looked to become the country’s leading exporter of grain, flour, and tobacco. Merchant James A. Buchanan, a partner in one of the country’s greatest shipping firms, had been named President of the Baltimore Branch of the Second National Bank of the United States. Civic leaders …
