Sebastian C. Moenninghoff, "The Regulation of Systemically Relevant Banks: How Governments Should Manage Their Exposure to Banking System Risk"
English | 2018 | pages: 181 | ISBN: 3658238100 | PDF | 11,9 mb
Sebastian Moenninghoff provides an extensive overview of the status of the 'Too-Big-to-Fail' doctrine post-crisis and develops the first comprehensive framework to categorize and discuss the full range of major policy options for regulating banks. Governments need to actively manage their exposure to banking system risk with the optimal policy mix depending on risk return preferences of a society and an economy's institutional setting. The new regulation for global systemically important banks developed by international regulators following the financial crisis is a significant step in expanding the tools to manage government exposure to banking system risk.

In their introduction to this anthology, James Bruce Ross and Mary Martin McLaughlin remind us that "no area of the past is dead if we are alive to it. The variety, the complexity, the sheer humanity of the middle ages live most meaningfully in their own authentic voices." The Portable Medieval Reader assembles an entire chorus of those voices-of kings, warriors, prelates, merchants, artisans, chroniclers, and scholars-that together convey a lively, intimate impression of a world that might otherwise seem immeasurably alien.

This comprehensive book provides a comparative analysis of religious nationalism in contemporary, globalized Asia. Exploring the nexus of religion, identity, and nationalism, Jeff Kingston assesses similarities and differences across the region, focusing on how religious sentiments influence how people embrace nationalism and with what consequences.
