Practical Aspects of International Finance Regulation

This module is part of the certified path "International Treasury Management and Corporate Finance". It can also be taken independently.

The objective of this module is to provide the fundamental knowledge of the international finance regulation.

With the successive financial crises, serious concerns have naturally been raised in the population, forcing governments to build an incredible set of laws to “better” regulate/monitor the activities of banks and other financial institutions. This module provides an overview of international finance regulation. It also considers some regulatory and practical issues affecting transnational financial transactions undertaken by global investment and corporate banks. The focus will thus be on the functioning of capital markets with a short introduction on the operation of the modern financial markets in bonds, equities, derivatives, and the manner in which these investments are regulated.
