Blair: Banking and Financial Services Regulation

by William Blair QC, George Walker, Keith Palmer

Since the passing of the Financial Services Act 1986, banks have become more circumscribed in their dealings. This book offers an in-depth analysis of the way in which the 1986 Act governs the way banks may carry out investment banking in the UK. It also covers the effect of EC directives on the application and development of present UK legislation. The book is intended for in-house lawyers in banks, and other financial institutions still struggling to reconcile the practicalities of compliance with regulatory structure, and for barristers and solicitors in commercial practice advising from without.
