Publisher Description:
The almost relentless concentration of capital and the amalgamation of services within the financial services industries of the UK, the US and Japan have created an unparalleled potential for the development and exploitation of conflicts of interest and duty. While these pressures are not new to those who handle other people's wealth, given the vital importance of the major financial markets as efficient and fair allocators of capital, the implications, legal and otherwise, of such conflicts are of considerable practical significance to intermediaries and those whom they serve. Conflicts of Interest and Duty focuses on the identification, control and implications of conflicts of interest and duty in these three major financial markets. The pervading effect of US securities law is analysed, as is the pragmatism of the English common law, and the hybrid response of Japanese law and regulators. The work explores in legal and business terms the notion of conflict of interest and duty, from the perspective of investors, financial intermediaries and those concerned to ensure fairness and probity in the markets. Consequently it will be of interest to all those who manage or handle other people's investments, their professional advisors, the clients themselves, those charged with regulating the markets and those responsible for framing the law. Having regard to the practical importance of US Federal law and English common law and the essentially Civil origins of Japanese commercial law, the reach of this book is truly international. Few, if any, regulatory systems in today's global market remain uninfluenced by, the legal experience of the UK, the US and Japan.
