This new course is designed to give students an in-depth understanding of the rationale for as well as of the components and institutional implementation of the regulation and supervision of financial markets. After having completed this course, students will be able to outline and discuss the dynamics of international financial standard-setting and how this process feeds into binding rules at the European and national levels; analyse the inherent weaknesses and market failures in the financial system and how they are addressed with regulatory instruments (such as capital requirements); and critically assess the regulatory components of the global financial system, including in cutting-edge areas such as sustainable finance and FinTech.
Please note: if you are following the Master after having completed the pre-master (after HBO Law), you can only take this course as an extra-curricular course. Therefore this course does not count towards the obligatory 42 EC of Master courses.
