  Edward F. Greene Despite the global nature of today's capital markets, regulatoryconflicts still impede cross-border activity between the largestcapital markets in the world—the US and the EU. Now isan opportune time for the US and the EU to work towards moreintegrated transatlantic capital markets. In order to achievethis integration, efforts should be directed at resolving conflictsthrough mutual recognition as opposed to harmonization whereverpossible. This article begins by reviewing the existing differences inapproach to capital markets regulation  相似文献

  Steven L. Schwarcz Structured finance lawyers increasingly are being scrutinizedwhen companies fail, but there is confusion as to the standardsby which they should be judged. Society benefits where such lawyers are permitted to help facilitatematters in which neither the lawyer's actions nor the underlyingtransaction is, at the time, illegal as a matter of positivelaw. In these matters, the company's managers, not its structuredfinance counsel, should be responsible for ensuring that thecompany's investors are benefited, not harmed. This article focuses on the public responsibility of lawyerswho represent originators of structured finance transactions.It looks critically at the traditional view of such responsibilityand considers what it should be.   Simon Firth Credit derivatives  相似文献

  Carl S. Bjerre and Sandra M. Rocks Transactions involving intermediated securities—i.e. securitiesthat are held in an account with a broker, bank, clearing agencyor other intermediary—demand a high degree of ex antelegal certainty. However, for intermediated securities accountsand transactions that reach across borders as is increasinglyprevalent, the traditional conflicts of law rules for many ofthe most important commercial law issues fail to provide thiscertainty. The Hague Securities Convention provides a modernand practical approach for determining the applicable law.  相似文献

  The Italian torpedo is dead: long live the Italian torpedo.A recently published decision of the Milan Court of First Instancenot only confirms that a cross-border claim for a declarationof non-infringement of a European patent is unlikely to succeedbefore an Italian court unless it is brought against an Italiandomiciled party, but also shows that the longstanding traditionof Italian torpedoes is not yet defunct, contrary to predictionsafter a landmark decision of the Italian Supreme Court in 2003.(p. 6) Wilfulness redefined: In re Seagate.

  • Remote trading screens allow investors to trade onexchanges located in other jurisdictions. The Securities andExchange Commission (‘SEC’) has generally prohibitedthe placement of foreign trading screens in the United Statesunless the associated exchange complies with US regulatory requirements.While the SEC defends its position as an essential investorprotection, European officials complain that SEC requirementsconstitute an unfair barrier to trade.
  • This article arguesthat technological advances have largely mooted this contro-versy.Current requirements do not protect US investors as much asthe SEC claims nor do they inhibit competition as much as theSEC's critics assert.
  • To the extent that alternative tradingmechanisms already give US investors de facto access to unregulatedforeign exchanges, the SEC may well choose to revisit its positionon foreign trading screens, particularly as US and Europeanfinancial markets become more integrated and disclosure requirementson both sides of . . .

  • In regulating cross-border capital markets transactions,regulators are employing either an exemptive approach, or aunilateral or mutual recognition approach. The exemptive approachallows market participants wherever located to transact businessin the host countries without complying with local requirements.The recognition approach is limited to a particular market,but is more expansive in terms of access to host country investors.In regulating cross-border transactions, the SEC has traditionallyrelied on the exemptive approach, and has restricted participationto only the largest, most sophisticated US investors. Recently,it has moved to a mutual recognition approach with its agreementwith Australia, which allows a broader range of US investorsto conduct cross-border transactions with Australian exchangesand broker–dealers relying almost entirely on the adequacyof the Australian regulatory system. However, both its exemptiveapproach and mutual recognition approach deal only with secondarymarket transactions, not participation in offerings.
